03 plate 2.2 diesel, cam belt or timing chain
« on: 10 February 2012, 19:31:16 »

Hi, i've just purchased a 2.2 diesel elite on a 03 plate and would like to know if it's cam belt driven or timing chain, the guy i brought it from told me it was timing chain, not knowing too much about motors i'd like to put my mind at rest, if it's a cam belt i'd like to get it changed, then i know its been done, many thanks

How many miles?
change oil every 10k
fuel filter once a year
glow plugs about 100k
look out for injector spill return pipe, as it gets older it lets air in :y

Cheers for the quick replies, think i may change the glow plugs this weekend, it's done 115k so not sure if they've been done, i know they did a service before it was sold to me as they've stamped the book, once again thanks

Check the rubber centre section of the crank pulley for cracks as well!
