Need Help, is there a screw missing on the belt tensioner? Loren help&

[jucarbon]

Hi I had my 2006 V6 Cayenne Air compressor replaced. I opened the hood and saw that a screw is missing on the belt tensioner. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Did the shop/person that replaced the compressor lose it?

From here it looks like 948.102.901.00 Torx screw M10 x 28 -- US MSRP $3.31

I think so, they removed the belt to replace the compressor. Is dangerous to drive the car without the screw?

My mistake - this is the V6 engine.

That threaded hole is only used to adjust the belt tension when you r&r the belt.

You put a bolt in there to adjust the belt tension then tighten down the 3 screws on the arm to hold that position.

So normally there is nothing in the threaded opening.

Thanks a lot for your help!
