HI, I'm after advise please. I have an 806 HDi that the timing belt has just snapped on. I was traveling in fifth at about 55mph (approx. 1900rpm) when it happened. There was no loud bang or rattles etc, just a total loss of power/drive and a full array of ignition lights. Looking under the bonnet, there is no sign of damage(Head lift, holes etc) I've had a similar thing happen on other engines and been lucky but don't know enough about these engines to be sure. What I don't want to do is spend a lot of money stripping the engine to find its toast! The car has done 242,000 miles and been serviced/maintained meticulously. Does anyone have any knowledge on these engines and how robust they are? Am I looking at a total loss? What's the probability of being lucky? Any responses would be gratefully received Thanks, Steve
