Engineered for 3.0L Diesel Performance
The Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, and Discovery are among the most capable diesel-powered SUVs on the market—but their 3.0L TDV6 engines demand precise component compatibility. Your drive belt system is critical: it powers the alternator, water pump, and auxiliary systems under extreme load and temperature cycling.
This three-component kit pairs OE-spec belt (LR035502), tensioner (LR035493), and 70mm idler pulley (LR036304) to restore factory efficiency, charging consistency, and engine cooling. Whether you're replacing a worn belt or upgrading all three components together, each part is engineered to Land Rover's exact tolerances—no compromises.
Partsmost supplies this kit as individual pieces or as a complete assembly, allowing you to replace only what you need or rebuild the entire system in one service interval. Backed by a 1-year warranty and 30-day money-back guarantee, this is the toolkit for owners who refuse component mismatches.

Installation Guide
Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 45–60 minutes
-
Preparation: Disconnect negative battery terminal. Allow engine to cool for at least 30 minutes. Remove plastic undertray and release belt tension by loosening tensioner bolt (counter-clockwise).
-
Belt Removal: Slide old belt off all pulleys—note routing diagram on hood underside or radiator shroud. Take photograph before removal for reference.
-
Pulley Inspection: Check crankshaft, water pump, and idler pulley for wear grooves, cracks, or bearing play. If pulley races, replace simultaneously.
-
Tensioner Replacement (if needed): Unbolt tensioner mounting bracket from engine block. Drain hydraulic fluid into container. Install new tensioner, torque to 25 Nm, refill if required.
-
Belt Installation: Route new belt following factory diagram. Start at crankshaft pulley, weave across alternator, tensioner, and water pump. Leave 1–2 cm slack at tensioner before final tightening.
-
Tensioning: Turn tensioner bolt clockwise until belt exhibits 10 mm deflection under thumb pressure at midpoint. Tighten bolt to factory specification (typically 45 Nm).
-
Rotation Test: Manually rotate engine 2–3 complete revolutions by hand. Confirm belt tracks straight, no rubbing on guards or mounting points.
-
Final Check: Reconnect battery. Start engine, listen for squealing or grinding. Run 5 minutes at idle, then shut down and re-inspect belt tension cold.
⚠️ Important: Do not over-tension the belt—this accelerates tensioner and pulley bearing failure. Under-tension causes slipping and alternator undercharging. If uncertain, use a belt tension gauge (typical spec: 110–130 N on TDV6 engines) or consult a Land Rover specialist.
