306 DTurbo Cambelt

Jul 13, 2003 4 Replies

Hi,



Just bought an N reg 306 D Turbo with 85K on the clock but it hasn't has a cambelt change. AT what interval should it be changed and what sort of price should I expect to pay?



Cheers

From memory i think Peugeot say 70k...

Get it done now if its never been done, obviously a main dealer will be expensive for this, go to your local independant garage, they're not that expensive.

Get it done as a matter of urgency and get the coolant pump done at the same time. My coolant pump failed at about 81k miles (N reg 306 DTurbo) and I was lucky enough for it not to take the cambelt and the rest of the engine with it. When I had them changed 11 months ago it cost me £175.21 from a decent independent garage. Parts were £61 +VAT and Labour was £88 + VAT. I'm told it can be a pig of a job to do because there is so little room to work in.

Thanks for the replies folks. Getting it done with genuine parts at a local independant peugeot garage in Norwich for £94inc. Also been recommendend by a friend that I get the alternater belt done at the same time so shall ask them to do that too.

Cheers
