Need cam locking kit ,change water pump and coolant while your at it,all goes ok 1.5-3 hrs depending on how easy bolts come undone on cam belt cover and back plate
Also you will have to remove cam pulleys to get rear cam belt covers off as the waterpump bolts are hidden behind it.

Twin Cam 'locking kit' is just a plastic wedge that I would say makes is easier, but not essential.

Thanks for all the above, as for the cam pulleys being in the way I think that's the Vectra engine, I know the 1.9 Dti is like that.

what about adjustment on the tensioner is it like the V6
