I need the auto tensioner part #. i went to the dealer and they didn't have a part called the "AUTO TENSIONER." He did however give me the part # for the "AUTO ADJUSTER" 14520-p13-013. this part was $84 dollars.

Is this the part i need? I remember that it was supposed to cost $100+.

He said that this was the moving part, and the spring needs to be compressed (just to give you guys an idea of what it is.)

thanks!

my warranty work for the tensioner should be finished by tomorrow according to the dealers so i'll ask them for the part number if its not on the print out that they should give me. I'll post it up tomorrow nite.

Tim,
I just got back from picking my car up, and all of the techs were busy so all i can give you is what is on my receipt.

First off, it says "Confirm noise from timing belt area/tensioner area. Perform bulletin SB01-010, replace timing belt and tensioner OP#11070"

(maybe there's a tsb on this, can someone check to see if that bulletin # is in fact a tsb?)

And for under the parts list, it says "FP number: 6695878"
and "Description: TIMING BE 06144-P13"

Hope this helps

typeshlude · 07-13-2001, 02:03 PM

My autotensioner didn't make any noise, it just failed.

I had this problem too and honda replaced my timing belt + tensioner today but now that they fixed it, my car whines like if I have a supercharger (not as loud). Is this normal. Maybe with a new t-belt...i don't know.

Thanks for your input
