OE Cross-Reference

💡 Supersession Note: 1311306 is the primary Land Rover part number; JD61536 is the Jaguar equivalent for the same idler pulley .

Vehicle Fitment

Engine details: 2.7L Lion V6 Diesel (276DT) / 3.0L Lion V6 Diesel (306DT) 

⚠️ Important: This idler pulley is specifically for 2.7L and 3.0L V6 diesel engines – not for petrol or other engine variants. Two pulleys are required per vehicle . Fitment varies by model year, production plant, and VIN range – verify before ordering.

Signs of Failure

• Timing belt noise – squealing, chirping, or rumbling from the timing area

• Rough bearing rotation – the pulley feels rough or noisy when turned by hand with the belt removed 

• Visible belt wear – fraying or surface cracks on the timing belt 

• Timing-related fault codes – cam/crank correlation errors

💡 Critical Service Note: The timing belt on the 3.0 TDV6/SDV6 engine must be replaced every 7 years or 112,000 miles (whichever comes first) . The idler pulleys are must-replace items during this service – they are included in complete timing kits for this reason . A failed idler pulley can cause the timing belt to jump or snap, resulting in catastrophic engine damage with pistons hitting valves .

Critical – Verify Your VIN Before Ordering

Timing idler pulleys are VIN‑, engine‑, and plant‑specific. VIN cut-offs apply (9A999999 / AA000001 / K2000001) depending on production plant . Provide your VIN – our team confirms exact compatibility before dispatch. We cannot accept returns for misordered parts without VIN verification.

💡 Installation Tip: Professional installation required – precise timing alignment is essential. Two idler pulleys are required per vehicle . When replacing the timing belt, it is strongly recommended to replace the tensioner, water pump, and both idler pulleys simultaneously to avoid repeat disassembly . Idler pulley torque: 30 Nm + 30 degrees . Tensioner torque: 26 Nm .
