Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / March 2005306 cambelt
Does anyone know when the cambelt should be changed on a 306? I have seen a 1.8 306xs for sale it's 6 years old with just over 60,000 on the clock, I'm just wondering when it needs to be changed and how much roughly would a dealer charge for the job. Thanks for any help change it ASAP. book says 72k or 5 years dealer price is around ?200 my local mechanic did mine for ?40 plus the belt belts are ?30 from Pug, or ?10 from DIY store > Does anyone know when the cambelt should be changed on a 306? > I have seen a 1.8 306xs for sale it's 6 years old with just over 60,000 on > the clock, I'm just wondering when it needs to be changed and how much > roughly would a dealer charge for the job. > > Thanks for any help >change it ASAP. >book says 72k or 5 years [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >> >> Thanks for any help And I would definitely recommend using a belt from the dealer, change the auxilliary belt too, and check all the tensioners. Any decent garage should be able to do it. > Does anyone know when the cambelt should be changed on a 306? > I have seen a 1.8 306xs for sale it's 6 years old with just over > 60,000 on the clock, I'm just wondering when it needs to be changed > and how much roughly would a dealer charge for the job. > > Thanks for any help I think Pug recommend 72k, although if lots of short journeys are done people recommend half that (36k). When I had it done 2-3 years ago on our 306 we were charged about ?75 by Peugeot (total price was - I think - around ?150 which was for front brake discs and the cam-belt). This was Pug Aldershot BTW. Hope that helps. David > > Does anyone know when the cambelt should be changed on a > 306?

Then mine went at 71k. > Does anyone know when the cambelt should be changed on a 306? > I have seen a 1.8 306xs for sale it's 6 years old with just over 60,000 on > the clock, I'm just wondering when it needs to be changed and how much > roughly would a dealer charge for the job. > > Thanks for any help www.gsfcarparts.com for the parts Haynes book of lies for the instructions and it should take about 2 hours. While you are at it do the tensioner, if it fails it is as good as the belt snapping.  SignatureMartin: "For a minute there, you bored me to death."
