Timing Chain Tensioner 06E109217H For Audi — Left Upper OEM Hydraulic Tensioner
06E109217H Left Upper Timing Chain Tensioner for Audi A4 B7 A6 C6 RS4 3.2L V6 -- OEM Replacement
The Timing Chain Tensioner with OEM reference number 06E109217H is a verified direct-fit replacement for a wide range of Audi vehicles equipped with the 3.2L V6 naturally aspirated engine (engine codes AUK, BKH, BDW) and the 4.2L V8 found in the B7 RS4. This upper left tensioner is a critical component of the engine's timing system, responsible for maintaining proper tension on the timing chain that connects the crankshaft to the camshafts.
The timing chain tensioner is an oil-pressurized hydraulic component that ensures the timing chain remains tight against the camshaft sprockets and crankshaft. Without proper tension, the chain can develop slack, potentially skipping a tooth and causing the engine to jump timing — leading to astrophic internal engine damage, bent valves, or complete engine failure.
This OE‑spec replacement tensioner is manufactured to original equipment standards by INA (Schaeffler Group), a global OEM supplier. It is loed on the upper left side of the engine and is compatible with vehicles from chassis/VIN 8E-7-907 300 and earlier. This part supersedes to 06E109217AN, which is the current OEM part number.
A failing tensioner typically presents with a rattling or clanking noise on startup, a check engine light with camshaft/crankshaft correlation codes, rough running, or a no-start condition. Replace the tensioner at the first sign of wear to prevent severe engine damage.

⚠️ Important: This tensioner is for the upper left position. It is suitable for vehicles up to chassis/VIN 8E-7-907 300. For vehicles after this VIN, the updated part number 06E109217AN may be required. Always verify your vehicle's original part number before ordering.
Features & Benefits
Feature Benefit
Oil-pressurized hydraulic design Automatically maintains optimal chain tension using engine oil pressure — ensures consistent timing accuracy under all operating conditions
OEM-grade INA manufacturing Manufactured by INA (Schaeffler Group), the original equipment supplier for Audi/VW timing components — guaranteed quality and fit
Upper left position Direct replacement for factory-installed component — matches original mounting points and oil feed passages
Prevents chain slack and timing jump Maintains proper tension to prevent chain derailment — protects against astrophic engine damage
Restores engine performance Eliminates rattling on startup, rough running, and timing-related fault codes — restores smooth engine operation
Comprehensive cross-reference coverage Matches multiple OE (06E109217AN) and aftermarket (INA 5510049100, Febi 47355) numbers — simplifies sourcing
Common Failure Symptoms
Symptom Description
Rattling or clanking noise on startup Most common symptom — tensioner fails to maintain oil pressure, allowing chain to slap against guides
Check Engine Light Timing-related fault codes — camshaft/crankshaft correlation codes indie timing is off
Rough running or misfires Incorrect timing affects combustion — engine may run rough or hesitate
No-start condition Severe timing jump prevents engine from starting
Valvetrain or piston damage In interference engines, timing jump can cause valves to contact pistons — astrophic engine failure
⚠️ Ignoring a failing tensioner can lead to:
  • Severe engine damage from jumped timing
  • Bent valves and damaged pistons
  • Complete engine failure
  • Costly engine repairs or replacement
Quality Control & Verifiion
QC Item Verifiion Method
Dimensional accuracy Precision inspection against OE blueprint — ensures proper fit in upper left position
Hydraulic function Oil pressure chamber tested — verifies proper tensioning operation
Spring tension Factory-set preload verified — ensures correct initial tension
Material composition High-strength steel and engineered polymer verifiion — meets OE durability standards
Surface finish Precision-machined surfaces verified — ensures smooth operation and proper sealing
Batch traceability Each production batch documented with quality certifies
ISO/TS16949 certified Manufacturing facility certified to international automotive quality standards
Installation & Maintenance Recommendations
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Timing chain tensioner replacement requires mechanical competence and proper torque procedures. Professional installation strongly recommended.
When to Replace:
  • Rattling noise on startup (most common symptom)
  • Check Engine Light with camshaft/crankshaft correlation codes
  • Rough running or misfires
  • During timing chain system overhaul
  • As preventive maintenance on high-mileage vehicles
Installation Guidelines (Reference Audi workshop manual for complete steps):
  1. Safety first — allow engine to cool completely before starting work
  2. Disconnect battery negative terminal
  3. Remove engine covers and components for access to the upper left timing chain area
  4. Loe the upper left timing chain tensioner
  5. Remove the old tensioner following manufacturer sequence
  6. Compare the new tensioner with the old unit — verify part number (06E109217H) and position (upper left) match
  7. Ensure the tensioner is compressed according to workshop manual specifiions before installation
  8. Install the new tensioner into position
  9. Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifiion
  10. Verify oil pressure feed — ensure oil passages are clear and the tensioner is receiving oil
  11. Reassemble all components
  12. Start engine and listen for any abnormal noise — the tensioner should pressurize within seconds
  13. Check for fault codes and verify proper engine operation
Pro Tips:
  • Always verify adequate oil volume and pressure when troubleshooting timing chain tensioner issues — these are oil-fed components
  • Consider replacing the tensioner when performing other timing chain service
  • Use only OEM or OEM-grade replacement parts for critical timing components
  • If the old tensioner failed due to oil pressure issues, diagnose and address the underlying cause
Packaging & Supply
  • Individually sealed in protective packaging
  • Packed in branded or plain carton
  • Bulk wholesale available in master cartons
  • Suitable for: Audi specialist repair shops, independent garages, auto parts distributors
