$139.99

AISIN BTF-500 engine timing belt tensioner hydraulic assembly for the 1998-2013 Subaru Forester 2.5L and other vehicles uses hydraulic pressure to set timing belt tension.

  • OE engineered and manufactured to provide optimal pressure
  • Delivers optimal belt tension and adjusts automatically throughout the RPM range
  • OE engineered pressurized mechanism dampens timing belt vibrations

A worn tensioner can show up as noise from the timing belt area or a leak at the tensioner body. A worn timing belt, an idler pulley or a failing water pump can be behind similar noise too, so find the actual cause before you buy a tensioner.

This tensioner is listed for a wide range of Subaru models, including the 2000-2012 Subaru Outback 2.5L and the 1997-2014 Subaru Impreza 1.8L / 2.0L / 2.2L / 2.5L; each takes one. If your Subaru isn't named here, look it up by year and engine on the Buyer's Guide tab.
