Hi could do with some advise, just purchased a 306 turbo diesel, could
someone tell me how often the cam belt needs to be replaced, the car has
105k on the clock, was told when i purchased it that it was change about 6
months ago when the vechicle had its last service but looking through the
service history have no record of any service since 2003 when the cam belt
was changed at 75k.

Also if i turn the heater on i get a windscreen full of dust and a horrible
smell, as far as im aware its down to the heating matrix could anyone
confirm this???

Any help appreciated!!!

1993-07/1998 - is every 72,000 miles - normal conditions and every 60,000
miles under adverse conditions.
As of 08/1998 - every 80,000 miles - normal conditions and every 48,000
miles under adverse conditions !
Hope this helps !

If the smell is a kind of burnt pepper smell it could be that the starter
motor has got stuck,  my son had this smell for around 5 months,  (his car I
mean)  now I have the car and solved it by changing the starter,   the smell
is much less now but hasn't gone completely so I think I will have to clean
out the heating system.

cambelt is 72k normal use, 36k adverse use! According my Pug employed
Brother.
GTI-6 is recommended to have it done every 36k due to high break rate.
