Hello. Im a newbie to the site. I joined today looking for information on changing my mrs's cambelt. Her car is a 206 1400 HDI on a 53 plate, she got it around 4 months ago and wants the belt changing for a bit of piece of mind as she does loads of miles per week to work and back. I have had a look around on the 'net but can't find any drawings or diagrams of the timing points. I have read that the flywheel can be locked through a hole in the sump using a 5mm pin. Also is it recommended to change the waterpump and bottom pully at the same time? Sorry if these points have been covered on here already but any help given will be greatly recieved. I am a forklift mechanic by trade and have a little bodyshop I work from in my spare time so getting dirty isnt a problem but I know that if somthings going to go wrong it will happen whilst I'm doing her car and I will never hear the last of it.

You superstar. It doesnt look as scary as I first thaught. Is it true that drill bits can be used is locking pegs?
