106 zest 3 timing belt

i have a peugeot 106 zest 3 and am wondering what the crack is with
getting the timing belt changed? at what mileage should i be
considering a replacement? thanks

 

it is said that you should change the timing belt every 30,000 miles
and once you have had it changed you should have it readjusted after
200miles. if you are compitant in doing it your self tell me what
engine you have in your car and i will tell you how you do it. but if
it diesel i cant help you as i dont touch diesel.

 

readjust? since when is the tensioner not self adjusting anymore?
changing it on a diesel only implies that you have to bear the diesel
pump in mind, non other than the normal procedure ( waterpump cogs
rols etc

30.000 miles seems a very short interval though as it is 80.000 on the
HDi engine

 

Hi,

Right, I'd assume at least 50,000 miles or 5 years (at first term). Better
having a ring to a Pug dealer.

 

96000 on the hdi

 

The Haynes manwell is in the boot of SWMBO's 106 at the moment and she's at
work so I can't check. From memory though I thought it was around 72k or
possibly 60k. We had the belt changed after we bought the car with 70k on
the clock because there was no history with it.

 

Try 72,000 or 4 years ???? ffs

 

For ****'s sake, right back at ya.

Why have you blundered in here to shout your mouth off ? What's with the
attitude ?
