hi it has a belt
1.9 has a belt 2.0 has a chain
I believe it has a chain instead of a belt. Call your Renault dealer to make sure.
timing belt
I have a 2001 2ltr Expression and it has a timing belt.
The Renault Clio, year 2002, has a timing belt. I believe some have timing chains but i ain't sure which.
According to the Gates website it has a chain and not a belt. To be sure look in your owners manual or contact your Renault dealer.
My Espace 2.0 dCi has a M9R engine and Renault told me it has a Timing Chain. Call them on 01923895000
My Renault Traffic sport has done 33,090 miles, and is 4 years old, when do they require a new cam belt?
My 98 RXE with G8Tdeisel 2.2 has a belt
The 2.0 dCi has a chain, not a belt and it is not in the servicing schedule and shouldn't need changed. If it does it's a huge job- the engine needs to be removed to complete the job properly.
Are the indicators built into the headlamp or seperate units? If they are seperate then it is a belt fitted, after 2006 the range had a facelift and the indicators were then built into the indicators. These models had new Euro4 engines fitted and were equipped with chains!!
up to 1998 they have a timing chain,clio 2 have timing belt due for replacment at 72,000 miles or five years.
