If it'll fit in a priority mail flat rate box, shipping will only be 10 bucks and you'll have it in 2-3 days. It came from M3_KILL3R's car a while back, not sure of the mileage. I'll get it bench tested at pep boys for you if you want.

I'd much rather that than the $200 Advanced Auto charges for them...and that's cheaper than I can get one from Pelican. lol __________________  Steffen, they are F's not V's.

It's a Valeo 80 amp, Part# 12311247288. Now that I think about it, it may have came out of Hugo's car. Either way, I'll get it bench tested before I send it out tomorrow and you should get it by Monday, Tuesday at the latest. I PM'd you my paypal addy.

Do you need the whole tensioner or just a pulley? I think I may have an extra pulley laying around. Edit, NVM, I 'm pretty sure mine is off of an M44. | | | 10-26-2010, 03:20 AM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: Nashville, TN Posts: 699 | I need the tensioner itself, I wish I only needed the pulley. __________________  Steffen, they are F's not V's.

I just tore up my freshly cleaned garage  searching for my old one, but I couldn't find it. All I can think of is that I must have gave it to someone.

I had like 4 of them. I was literally giving them away! I have an alternator out of a 325i, but it has a squeaky bearing. Good for a core I suppose. | | | 12-02-2010, 06:46 AM | #13 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2010 Location: CA Posts: 138 | So who needs a belt tensioner and/or alternator? I have available from a 96 M44. Not sure if these fit M42. Does anyone with more experience know? | | | 12-02-2010, 06:53 AM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2010 Location: CA Posts: 138 | Never mind about the tensioner, just checked realoem out of curiosity and they are different. Alternators are same part number so that should be good. | | | 12-02-2010, 06:39 PM | #15 | Junior Member Join Date: Aug 2010 Location: Norwalk Posts: 14 | now my rpms surge at idle when i roll my window down..what could this be? | | |  | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Thread Tools | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
