stevec Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 56 plate Autocruise Starfire. 17,500 miles. 2.2 HDi. Does it have a cambelt (I think it does)? Is it imminently in need of changing? If so approx. cost? Water pump? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
globebuster Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 If it does - then yes about 3 years ago! Around £250 with the tensioner Water pump - probably advisable Do some homework (lol) This forum less likely to give you a definative answer than other sites............... although searching previous posts might give you some insight.

spospe Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 The 2.2 litre is chain drive, the 2.3 litre is belt drive; so if it is indeed a 2.2 litre engine then you have no need to be concerned. The 2.2 litre is more-or-less the same as the front wheel drive Ford Transit engine of the same capacity. The 2.3 litre is the FIAT belt drive unit.

stevec Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 This is a 2006 old version (X244) chassis (I did say it was a 56 plate). Does that make a difference. Everyone I spoke to about getting a quote didn't say it was chain drive. And there are loads of cambelt kits for a 2.2HDi engine on ebay. I don't have the handbooks so can't get an engine type.

Archiesgrandad Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Why not open the bonnet and look, or if you aren't sure, ask a friend to look. AGD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevec Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Just phoned Peugeot with the VIN number. It is a cambelt. And just to complete the information they charge £160.40 for a kit including the water pump. I've had two quotes to change from MH places (one a dealer). £445 (dealer- including water pump) and £450 (independant garage not including pump....they want another £175 for that!). I know which of the two I would use. Looking elsewhere. Will consult my local motorhome friend and see who he uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
