Audi timing chain tensioner, OEM part number 079109217S, is a used genuine component engineered for 4.2L V8 and 5.2L V10 engines found in certain Audi and Volkswagen models. This tensioner keeps the timing chain properly taught, preventing slack that can lead to chain slap or skipped timing. A failing tensioner often produces a metallic rattle from the front of the engine, especially on cold start.
