Cam belt question

[Nickyandalan206cc]

Why can we find out what engine number we have? We have a 1.6 allure. And there's two different cam belts kits on Euro with different engine numbers and different amount of tooths.

Also do you need to lock the crank shaft or lock from the cams?

Thanks

You can find out all the details of your car from the last eight characters of the VIN in Peugeot Service Box. If you don't have access to it, post them and i'll look it up. You can also get the correct part number for the belt from it.

Having said that, the engine number is on the V5 ("logbook").

The answer about pegging is both. See http://www.peugeot206cc.co.uk/repair-206/ mechanical/engine/timing.

Thanks, haven't got the log book as we only just bought the car a few days ago.

Last 8 numbers are 44213547.

Cambelt Part No 0816 H6

However, it is highly advisable to replace the tension roller and idler roller at the same time. The Peugeot kit for all 3 is 0831 R9.

Also, because all the work to gain access will have already been done, it would be best to replace the water pump as well - 1201 E5.

Ordered correct part and yep we knew to get water pump too.

Hubby will be very busy later!!

There is a "how to" guide on here on how to do it
