Timing Belt Question

Post by Doo »

Hi all, I have a Delco timing belt I planned to use on my wife's 2007 C4, but I am more in need of it on my 2012 Berlingo Multispace

The question is, will it fit ??

Her car is a 16v HDi whereas mine is a 8v e-HDi...

I can't imagine them being much different so thought I would check. On saying that, I am in little doubt they will be about 3 teeth longer or something :-D

Funny the amount of people who don't realise the 16v has a chain as well as a belt though :?
Has anyone seen the plot? :?

Pretty sure they are different, early one seems to be 125 teeth, whereas the Berlingo needs 141.

I figured there would be different amount of teeth. It was too much to hope for to get the belt I have sitting unopened to fit :-D

But it makes sense the amount of teeth would be different because the 8v head would be completely different from the 16v head.

Bah! Mo moneh :roll:
