My car tensioner started to make noise since 20k, now adi 53k, still haven't change. It only make noise during cold start for 2-3 minutes only, after that will become normal.

You can just leave it unless it make noise continuously.

I asked shop outside before, what they told me is around that price, and they told me Proton car tensioner is just suck, they suggest me not to change it becos it won't last as well for the new one.

Most of the Proton car camber is out of aligned even fresh from factory, this is what the Proton SC mechanics told me last time.

My advise, just installed those nuts if you want your tyre to wear evenly, RM50 for 2pcs is for 'life time', no need to consider so much, and dun said this is rubbish or waste money for 2 little nuts. Mine adi installed since 4k, until now 53k the nuts still there, and my tyres worn evenly. So up to you to choose.

did u ask when to change it?
every 80k is it?

Everytime you change your timing belt...like now 53k, not worth to change tensioner alone, because have to dismantle timing belt and other parts, same procedure like change timing belt, so the workmanship adi not worth...

ic...but did u ask what is included in changing the tensioner belt?
becuz tensioner belt doesn't sell 1 set like timing belt
so far i heard the arm...i dn't know what else

whats the LCP anyway ?

What the heck is a tensioner belt? I thought a tensioner is a wheel that keeps your timing belt taut....does it have it's own belt?
