When to change out a timing belt on 06 vectra sri Mileage wise
buy a belt, loosen the tensioner, replace belt
The BA Falcon drive belt should be changed regularly. It is important to change it regularly because it is what operates the vehicles' camshaft.Ê
The ac belt has a tensioner that is accessed from below, and takes a tensioner tool to loosen. Remove the serpentine belt, release tension on the ac belt then the belt can come off for replacement.
Not easy you have to remove radiator and loosen steering pump to get access to it there are 3 bolts holding it on , slacken drive belt first and remember to disconnect the battery lead before you start good luck
How often do you need to change the cam belt on an Astre 1.6 club 2000 plate
It has a belt
it should be changed after 60000 miles
if its the vauxhall 2.0 dte, the answer is NEVER ...the engine has a chain, not a belt!
Does a vauuxhall aastra 1.4 petrol turbo have a cam belt or is it chain driven
Belt :)
It has a chain
No. On the Vauxhall Astra 1.4 engine the water. pump is driven by the cam belt. In fact the cam belt is adjusted by twisting the pump body and tightening the three retaining nuts.
All Vauxhall 2.2 petrol engines in Astra and Zafira have a chain. The Sintra and the Omega are belt driven as they were fitted with what was in effect a bored out version of the X20XEV which was belt driven.
next to the timing belt ?
It should be done every 40,000 miles this is what the main and local dealer has told me.
there is no cam belt on 2.2 astra its a chain, BUT beware coz these snap with no warning and have a nice price tag for repair, I have just paid out £2000.00 because mine snapped with no warning. Vauxhall say it dont need changing it should last the life of the engine but this is crap!!!!!!!!!!!!
