Fix Common OEM Failures

The factory hydraulic dampener on 2002 to 2006 MINI models is prone to worn bushings, unstable belt tension, belt slip, and premature belt failure. It also offers no protection if the serpentine belt breaks. The ALTA Adjustable Tensioner Stop eliminates these weak points in one simple upgrade.

Built In Protection
