Belt Drive Belt tensioner Climate Compressor missing
 

Hello,

I want to change all the belt of my car because of 72000 milage and preventive maintenance.
By this way I found out that the belt tensioner for the climate compressor is missing.
It is a second hand car and I don't know what the pre owner did. When I look at the mounting point for the tensioner, then it look like that there was never a bolt in.
I dont know how they got the belt on.

So it look like that I have to buy the tensioner, :tsk:

I am pretty sure there is no tensioner on the A/C compressor belt.

This thread has a .PDF with the instructions for both belts.

Thanks for the link, when I look to the second pdf down the last picture I can see the belt tensioner, maybe for the model later they installed it.

I think BMW re-uses pictures from different cars in the TIS. The first and second PDF look like completely different motors. Maybe send brown370 a PM since it looks like he has changed these belts a few times.

The V-Belts has a tensioner and the A/C Compressor does not. You have to pull the belt off with a rag while turning the crank. You have to use a special tool to stretch the new belt on.

You will need a sepentine belt tool w/ a large Torx socket T-55. To remove the sepentine belt first (lest than 10 minutes) Take a picture of the belt before removing it so you know how it goes back on.
Jack up the car and remove the front underbody cover. You use a towel to remove the A/C compressor belt while turning the crank/engine. One you remove the old A/C belt, put the new belt over the crank first, and then install it on the bottom of the A/C compressor and install the tool pictured on the A/C compressor pulley. Turn the crank clockwise keeping the belt tight and the tool will pop the belt on. I had to do it twice because the belt ribs did not line up the first time.

Thanks for the help, I postpone it in the moment. After changin of the O-Ring for the temp-sensor and changing of transmission oil, I need a rest. :-) Will do that then later, but it i slik u wrote.

no tensioner 06?
 

my 06 650 is missing the a/c belt and tensioner,along with part of the upper oil pan,did the 06 have a tensioner?

AC belt install tool
 

I am fighting installation of the AC belt. I made a tool to hold the belt and turn the crank over similar to the tool shown in the prior post. Even with my home made tool I am having difficulty.
I need to break down and buy the proper BMW tool to install the AC belt. I cannot find the part number for the AC belt installation tool.
Does anyone know the part number for this tool or where to find it?

Found Part number
 

Sorry, I found the part number of 64 1 040 but I cannot see any of the online suppliers that list this part number. I guess I may need to try to special order.
Thanks
