Just incase of any timing issues and subsequent engine failiure requiring a rebuild. There are many garages who just don't have a clue about timing these cars correctly. |

they'll be able to get the VIN off a reg btw, if they say they can't they're slackers what info are they after? I don't think there's anything VIN specific, belt tension is belt tension, you shouldn't be re-tensioning an used belt especially on one of these engines. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

How would they do a cambelt change on a car which has vernier pulleys and no key in the crank pulley!? ________________________________________ VTSbest 60' : 2.272 best 1/8 ET : 9.375 @ 74.42mph best 1/4 ET: 14.603 @ 97.047mph Team Trackday™ |

well basically iv had a look at the timing the cams line up to there markers bt the crank pulley dont align up.. iv had a new cambelt and crank pulley (the old one the rubber had worn) and that bent valves previously. so needa take it to some1 who can check and adjust it properly.pugs said they cant get the VIN number and cant do nothing til they get that... ________________________________________ phase 3 Hatchback V reg 5Door GTi6 |

yea sounds easy enough but id rather a pro do it dont want to rick bending valves etc. in the back of my mind im thinking what if new crank pulley is faulty etc... so would rather it all be checked... thats the issue i got. dint say nothing but tensioning. the belt is tight, its running fine, but maybe it could run better once aligned...so really need a VIN number for pugs to check it out make sure pistons are tdc etc ________________________________________ phase 3 Hatchback V reg 5Door GTi6 |

Nothing surprises me with these, But with the amount of 406's, 306's with this engine type I have never seen the issue, A million good garages can do thisBut just because it's Pug does not mean they have anyone there who knows about that engine, Staff turnover can be high and the car's old now so be warned ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |
