Hdi cambelt change

Post by np »

I`m going to get my cambelt,tensioners,aux belt.& maybe water pump changed soon.Rang around half the French indies today,cheapest was £255 for both belts & tensioners.Dearest was £240 just for the cambelt.Rang a local Peugeot dealer(family run),£240 all in for belts & tensioners :) .
Anyway,i fancy saving some money & having a go myself.But i`ve never done 1 before & dont really feel confident enough,as theres much to go wrong.Any Hdi belt changers out there fancy giving me a helping hand :?: Can supply ramps or a pit,plenty of tea or beer, :D
Located 2 miles from M4/M5 interchange in Bristol.
Cheers,Neil :)

I chickened out of mine but I understand it was marginally easier than an XUD one. The only real differences are that the tensioner isn't automatic and you don't have to time the pump.

I bought my kit at the link below. Contitech is supposed to be a good make and it's a pretty good price.

Full list here, in case I've got the wrong one.

Well,after reading the BOL`s,& lack of interest hear,i`ll let the Peugeot change it.Its a good cost from a main dealer.They did my Xantia a few years ago,being the cheapest around then. :)
