Xantia HDI Timing / Aux Belt Kit Recommendations

[XantiaExclusiveHDI]

Hi all

Been a while since I posted!

So as a precaution I'm looking to replace my timing belt (10 years old now) and the auxiliary belt (?? years old) along with the water pump & tensioners etc.

Could anyone recommend manufacturers for each kit that is as close to OE as possible? Have seen kits from Bosch / Febi / Dayco / INA / Gates / Conti amongst others.

Thanks

Hi

I've done this job several times. Last time I bought a kit with belt, water pump and tensioners made by Gates who are OEM. Dayco are also one to be recommended

good luck

Seconded.
Never had a problem with the Gates kit. Well, not on a PSA engine, anyway.

PSA used several suppliers for the original belts, including Gates and Dayco.

I am going to do the same job on my berlingo 2.0 hdi. I am going to find out how much they ask for an OEM kit and if it is not so bad then I am going with OEM kit. And also with OEM water pump.Also what do you think should I also order new OEM bolts for tensioner , roller and crankshaft pulley. I have heared that sometimes the tensioner roller bolt has snapped during reuse( maybe using wrong torque?).

Thanks guys

I'll look into the Gates & Dayco kits

OK - Gates are showing one kit for the timing belt & pump with a part number KP15524XS.

However they are showing three different kits for the auxiliary belt for HDI 110 cars with aircon:

K056PK1735 - Sanden
K026PK1750 - Delphi
K016PK1745 - Delphi

How can I find out which will be the one for my car?

Thanks

If you were to post up the VIN (which will, for security reasons, be obscured so only Moderators can read it) a Moderator can then look up what your car had when she rolled out of the factory, including the A/C equipment.

Thanks Hell Razor5543

I have my VIN, will it be automatically hidden or is there a way to make it viewable only to moderators on the forum?

[Hell Razor5543]

It will automatically be obscured so that ONLY Moderators can read it.

[XantiaExclusiveHDI]

Ahh OK

The VIN is: VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

[XantiaExclusiveHDI]

I have two part numbers now, and it depends on whether the AC compressor is a Sanden model (part no: K056PK1735) or a Delphi model (part no: K026PK1750). Is there any way to tell?

Thanks

[XantiaExclusiveHDI]

OK - the part number cast into the compressor casing is 6560502. I think on research this is a Delphi compressor. Can anyone confirm? This would suggest I need belt K026PK1750

Thanks

For your VIN, there can be either type of compressor fitted:

Delphi Compressor Citroen Part No: 6453AQ, Delphi 1135290
Sanden Compressor Citroen Part No: 5453TK, Sanden SD7V16 QA1106 and SD7V16 QA1227

As for the belt:

If Sanden Compressor Fitted: K6-LE1736 (Citroen Part: 5750YF)
If Delphi Compressor Fitted: K6-LE1750 (Citroen Part: 1606353780 or 5750YG) Both these are still available from parts.

Thanks Marc

Having wiped off some grime I found the part number on the label which is 1135290, so it's a Delphi

Better get ordering the kits and work myself up to the job in hand
