Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / February 2006hdi cambelt.
Anyone heard of cambelt breakage on these engines? I'm approaching 74,000 miles (Xantia 90 hdi - a bit power boosted) and the book says change at 100,000. If I leave it till autumn it will be up to 87,000. DaveK. Are you sure it is not 100000km? My 306 says 72000 miles Alec > Anyone heard of cambelt breakage on these engines? > I'm approaching 74,000 miles (Xantia 90 hdi - a bit power boosted) and the > book says change at 100,000. > If I leave it till autumn it will be up to 87,000. > DaveK. > Are you sure it is not 100000km? > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >> If I leave it till autumn it will be up to 87,000. >> DaveK.

I'd rather pay up to £300 to have a cambelt changed than scrap a car because of a BER engine.

Just read the book again and it's 75 to 80 thousand miles, except HDI engines, which are 100,000 miles- except SEVERE conditions when it's 75,000. Been quoted £150 so it's time I guess. DaveK. >>> > Peugeot recommend 72k or 5 years!! >>> > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >Been quoted £150 so it's time I guess. >DaveK. Definitive answer. Peugeot is 96,000 miles normal driving or 72,000 severe, or 5 years Citroen is 100,000 miles normal or 75,000 severe, or 5 years. These are HDI only. > "ogglet" <ogglett@cwazy.co.uk> wrote in news:43e0f439$0$3622$ed2e19e4 > @ptn-nntp-reader04.plus.net: [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > What is the definitive answer here??! You have to decide which engine you are quoting for. The older 1.9TD had a recommended renewal at 72k miles, but the HDI is higher. Haynes, in their infinite wisdom, have it at 36k, but my handbook tells me that my Peugeot dealer will advise when the cambelt requires changing, as it is dependant on the type of engine. > You have to decide which engine you are quoting for.

Don't rely on them telling you if you don't ask. Mine was changed as it was too old rather then too high a milage. It was a couple of years too old, and was only spotted as I asked the question.

My definitive answer would be to change it now. There is a school of thought that recomends you fit a new water pump at the same time SignaturePeter > My handbook says 96K! > > What is the definitive answer here??! The definitive answer, is whatever your handbook says. The intervals change all the time - there's no defacto figure. If you can find two intervals for the *same* *year* of the *same* *engine* then always use the lower figure. |
