General Cam Belt etc change

[Les Holloway]

My 115 JTD has now done about 100000 km about (65000 miles) since the last cambelt change.

Should I leave it a while or get it done soon. Also would it be worth changing the crankshaft pully at the same time.

Regards

Les

How long ago was the last change? That said, you've had your monies worth out of it. I'd change the cambelt, water pump and the aux belt and tensioner and be done with it.

Same reply from me as on the other thread . . .

For the Cambelt, I'd tend to err on the side of caution and do it a bit earlier than quoted, considering the carnage (£££s) it can cause if it fails.
Also, unless it's due for its first replacement (from new), you can't be sure the water pump was changed the last time, and as WMF said, a knackered pump can cause the belt to fail.

Ask me how I know . . .
