The bolt secures the drive belt tensioner to its mounting point, allowing the tensioner to maintain correct auxiliary belt tension and belt alignment. A correctly fitted tensioner bolt is important for reliable belt operation and accessory drive performance.
Functions
• Replaces the M8x60 drive belt tensioner bolt
• Secures the drive belt tensioner assembly
• Supports correct auxiliary belt tensioner mounting
• Helps maintain belt alignment and stable belt operation
• Used during drive belt, tensioner, pulley, or accessory drive service
• Replaces damaged, corroded, stretched, worn, or missing original bolts

Why Replace This Part?
Drive belt tensioner bolts are exposed to vibration, engine heat, belt load, and repeated service work. A worn, corroded, rounded, stretched, or damaged bolt may not provide correct clamping force and can compromise tensioner mounting. Replacing the bolt during tensioner or belt service helps ensure secure installation and reliable auxiliary drive operation.
When to Replace This Part
• The drive belt tensioner is being replaced
• The auxiliary drive belt is being serviced
• The original bolt is corroded, rounded, stretched, damaged, or missing
• The tensioner has been removed during engine service
• Belt noise, poor belt tracking, or tensioner movement is being investigated
• Preventative replacement is required during major service
• The vehicle is undergoing Porsche accessory belt drive repair.
Where it fits on the car
This bolt fits at the drive belt tensioner mounting point within the engine accessory belt drive system. Exact position can vary depending on model, engine type, and belt layout.
