Gates 09-14 Acura TSX DriveAlign Auto Belt Tensioner

In this kit, you get the Gates DriveAlign Auto Belt Tensioner, designed specifically for your 2009-2014 Acura TSX. This part is crucial for keeping your accessory drive belt properly tightened. Without the correct tension, the belt can slip, leading to issues like a lack of power steering, a dead battery because the alternator isn't spinning right, or the air conditioning not working.

Gates is a well-known name in belts and tensioners, and this DriveAlign unit is built to meet the demands of your vehicle's accessory drive system. It's designed to maintain consistent belt tension throughout its lifespan, which helps prevent premature belt wear and ensures all your accessories get the power they need. Proper tension also means quieter operation, reducing any squealing or chirping noises you might hear from a loose belt.

When you're replacing your accessory belt, it's always a good idea to inspect or replace the tensioner at the same time. They often wear out around the same mileage, and a new tensioner ensures your new belt will perform optimally and last longer.
