What This Product Does
The tensioning roller supports the toothed camshaft belt and helps maintain the tension required for consistent camshaft and crankshaft synchronisation. It forms part of the camshaft and valve timing assembly.
Functions
- Guides the camshaft timing belt through its operating path
- Maintains suitable belt tension
- Supports accurate mechanical valve timing
- Allows the belt to travel smoothly around the timing assembly
- Helps limit belt movement, slipping and irregular wear
Technical Details
- Product type: camshaft belt tensioning roller
- Reference number: 026109243F
- Outer diameter: 72 mm
- Width: 24.5 mm
- Diagram ref no 14.
Symptoms of Fault
- Squealing or chirping noises that change with engine speed
- Rumbling or whining from the timing-belt area
- Visible pulley movement or wobble
- Belt dust around the timing cover or pulleys
- Cracking, glazing or uneven wear on the camshaft belt
- A roller that feels rough, tight or loose when inspected
Why Replacement Matters
A worn bearing or damaged tensioning surface can prevent the camshaft belt from running smoothly and holding the correct tension. This may accelerate belt wear or allow timing to become disturbed. The roller should be inspected when renewing the camshaft belt or carrying out engine work, with the surrounding pulley, fastener, washer, bearing sleeve and belt condition checked at the same time.
FAQs
- Should the roller be checked when replacing the belt?
Yes. The roller bearing and running surface are wear points and should be inspected whenever the camshaft belt is renewed. - Can excessive belt tension cause problems?
Yes. Incorrect tension may shorten roller-bearing and belt life, so installation and adjustment should follow the appropriate workshop procedure. - How can suitability be confirmed?

OEMatch Camshaft covers / Gaskets — Durability, Sealing, Performance
OEMatch camshaft covers and gaskets seal the upper engine area on Porsche models to prevent oil loss and protect valvegear from contamination. The range covers valve cover gaskets, complete cam cover assemblies and seal kits, chosen to support routine service, leak repair and engine preservation for Porsche vehicles.
Available Types
- Valve cover gaskets: rubber, composite and cork-style options
- Camshaft/cam cover assemblies in aluminium or composite finishes
- Seal kits including gaskets, O-rings, bolts and washers where applicable
Understanding OEMatch Camshaft covers / Gaskets
OEMatch provides a wide range of Porsche components, from gaskets to suspension hardware, engine parts, and interior trim.
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original camshaft covers and gaskets. OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for camshaft covers and gaskets and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM camshaft covers and gaskets engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
Benefits Include
- Restores reliable sealing to prevent oil leaks and residue
- Protects ignition coils and electrical components from oil contamination
- Helps maintain correct crankcase ventilation and oil control
Why Camshaft covers / Gaskets Wear and Fail
- Heat cycling and age harden gasket materials, causing cracks or shrinkage
- Oil contamination and chemical breakdown reduce sealing effectiveness
- Warped or corroded covers and damaged fasteners compromise the seal
The Importance of Replacing with OEMatch Camshaft covers / Gaskets
Timely replacement of camshaft covers and gaskets prevents oil loss that can lead to fouled spark plugs, misfires or damage to nearby components. Using correctly specified parts helps preserve engine cleanliness and lubrication on Porsche models and supports continued, predictable operation of the valvegear and associated systems.
Advantages
- Parts supplied with the correct form and sealing materials for typical Porsche applications
- Seal kits simplify repairs by including commonly replaced items
- Options in different materials to suit original or service preferences
