Hi guys,
Im new here and unfortunately my first post isn't a happy one!
I have a 206 2.0 HDI 2001
My waterpump decided to self destruct whilst on the motorway 
The car still runs (although not recommended) so had to be towed home.
And now im left needing to change my cambelt (to be safe) and waterpump the weekend before christmas.
If there is anyone on here located in the nottingham area who has done one before and wouldnt mind lending a hand i would be eternally greatful.
I will gladly throw in a crate of beer or other posion of choice!
Also I can offer £50 to any good samaritan wanting to help me out

2.0 hdi had it done about 6 weeks ago. water pump, aux belt, and cambelt kit fitted. i bought the parts from peugeot they fitted
my car came with no history so just had it done to be safe.
snapped cambelt will cost you alot more then replacing it now mate

Well I decided agianst doing the job myself as it is cold and raining
Parts cost me £62 for cambelt kit and waterpump - not bad i thought!
But labour to change them over will be £210 - seemed pricey to me but i guess it is the last few days before christmas, should count myself lucky they can fit me in.
All being well will be back with me friday afternoon.
Took the plastic cover off to have a look at the cambelt and its loose as fook! can almost turn it all the way around, i think im lucky it didnt cause more damage/break.

Help!!!!!!!!!
Ive just decided to check mine, and I found to be a slack as a street girls Knickers! So im gald i checked it. But...I decided to change it my self. Done belts before, bit fiddly but got it off and put new one on with a pump and wheels etc. Now the problem.e The belt keeps trying to slide off??? Refitted adjuster and and retightened by hand.......starts but belt walks toward the edge of the cogs ?? Now Im assuming ive got some thing a bit p**sed, and the only thing i can think of it might be is the water pump. It didnt have a gasket when i took the old leaking rattly one out , I call it a dry face fit, but i got a gasket with the pump so decided to put it in to be safe.....Does any one know if this my failing and i need to remove it?? Im gonna assume it
Anyone ?
Chuck

Its a gates kit and it all looks good....being gatesasket, ill assume its all good.
I didnt put any covers on to make sure all ran square before I rebuilt it, so glad I did.
Water pump that came out didnt have a gasket on it, but i did put one on for the new pump. Im kind of leaning on the fact this may have put out a touch. The tensioner and other replacement pully i did up with fingers so cant see them being out of line. Can only be the pump really. Cross finger.
Ill take it out, remove gasket and dry fit it...

Surely it needs a gasket..and the thing adds what...half a mil?also i explained that i didnt mean the outer covers or cowels but i did mean the round metal plate that goes on the end of the bottom pulley to avoid belt run off...
If i was doing this id goto youtube and find the peugeot 206 timing belt/cam belt refitting guide to make sure everything he does on the guide had been done right on the faulty one u own...u will see the plate i mention on there on the bottom pulley aswell...

Well, if i fitt all the new kit bits, and put the old belt on, it runs fine...new belt runs off??? Ive swapped the bits a round to see if I can identify whats wrong....but im struggling. ive got a new belt from supplier so once ive idented the issue i can fit a new belt instead of the one im trying to play with.
Nothings easy is it. Bez, Seems im either missing this plate from a previous fit or mine doesnt have one???
I expect there's no real answer to the probably apart from keep trying.
