Peugot 206 Timing Belt & Water Pump Replacement 

I've changed my water pump today by only watching this tutorial, and actually it worked perfectly . thank you for your useful info.

Thank you for this excellent explanatory demonstration of a timing belt removal and replacement. Wow, What a load of work!!!

Absolutely fantastic video! Cam belt changes are one of those things, very expensive to get someone else to do it for us, even more expensive if we do it ourselves to save money and mess it up. This video is excellent, really informative and shows that really anyone can do a belt change, so long as they take their time, no rush. The 206 8v engine is one of the more simple ones to do and certainly a good one to start on, but like any timing belt change it is easy to mess it up and write off the engine. Thanks for making this video and sharing your knowledge, I am sure many will benefit from it. Gets a big thumbs up from me!

A fine "how to" guide presented in an easy to follow style. My son was given a 206 with the 1.4 engine and I want to replace the Timing Belt just in case it is overdue. Car runs well. I'm used to working on DOHC engines which are a bit more involved than SOHC ones like this. Even so, nice to have access to this fine guide. Thank you.

Quality video... and very clear instructions. Thanks from Bristol UK

Doesn't get much clearer than this! Excellent work and thanks.

Great video. You make it look so easy lol

I have just done a cylinder head gasket/water pump and timing belt on my 2001 1.1 206 so this video and the drive belt one came in very handy. I didn't remove the engine mount because I had plenty of room. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for taking the time to do this. It has been very helpful to me. :)

Amazing. Followed it step by step and sorted it all out. Thank you so much

great video....thanks

Ti ringrazio sei molto bravo il tuo video mi servirà molto!!🔝🔝🔝

Excellent Well presented, 5 star!

do you do a video on head gaskit chage for 206 model

im changing my engine on mu tu1 saxo from the head up with the head from another identical engine would setting the timing up be the same as whats shown in video or would this be more complicated

Thanks a lot! Quetsion: is it not possible to leave the mount in place but only undo the two bolts that are on the front side of the engine? The ones closest to you. That would also save getting the ECU out of the way. Probably will give you a little less wiggle room around the belt tho.

Amazing..thank you

Great info, I can now have a go at this myself and save a few quid.

Very good, thanks.

Good job.

Thanks for video Dear i want ask u if the xu5 and xu7 and xu9 same block cylinder

Good video :) But I have a question: If there's a manual tensioner on the car, can I replace it with a automatic tensioner? (while replacing the timing belt and waterpump) or is t not possible?

thanks! my waterpump hes died on my 206.need to do the same as you. Waterpump,rolls,and timingbelt

Gonna be doing this tomorrow on a 1.4 8v, should be the same yes?

good tip always check the tell tale hole on water pump they can leak plus check water pump gear smoothness and tensioner

When you install the timing belt and spin the engine by hand do you do a full rotation and look the your marks go in the same spot after a full rotation/cycle?

Jade Owens 3 jaar geleden do you do a video on head gaskit chage for 206 model??? please

would this job be a lot more easier if you removed the off side wing ?

quiero q espliquen los puntos de arriba de leva y l o de abajo del ciguenal y la marcas dee las correa d punto gracias

Thanks

what if belt falls before the adjustment of camshaft,is it a job for a mechanic then??

I think its very hard work

Fan belt, your old school. Love the Irish accent

Thanks, very clear and informative video! I don't fancy the job though...

Good 'how to' video.

For piece of mind both flywheel and camshaft should be locked with pins for correct timing. just noticed that belt was still loose when you refitted it! yikes!

ts valid for 205 TU engine?

this same for a 307cc 1.6 ?

Is this the same on the 206 rc?

How much should you tighten the timing belt?

The missing information is that the timing is set correctly when the cambelt peg is set and no.1 cylinder is at TDC. Forget the rest.

Excellent i enjode the vidio

Great video, thank you!

Super

good VIdeo! but its missing the drain plug on the thermostat base and locking the crank at the flywheel using the hole near the oil filter.

HOW BLOCK THE CRANCK?

I know this is an old video but I need to do the cam belt, water pump etc on a Citroen C3 which has basically the same engine and layout. Is this something an amature should attempt? I'm worried I'll bugger the timming up. I guess I'll just have to go for it. Wish me luck and thank you for making the video it's very informative 👍

perfect ...

Good afternoon, I am replacing a timing belt of a Peugot 206 but this is broken and I have no idea where is located the alignment points

My 2000 Peugeot Boxer petrol and LPG motor now misfires,any ideas as to fix this,unable get it running so will need to tow to garage or is there an easy fix.Thanks

como saco el motor de aranque dei pegot

Yes, good video. But I think it should be pointed out that 16mm is the spanner / socket size, not the size of the bolt, which are sized by the diameter of the bolt shank.

Hi I like your video. Its spot on. I need to do the same on my Peugeot 206 gti. Its been parked 2 years and need to be running. Would you know if the same applies for the 206 gti or is it different procedure? ''''Billi Joe

👍

I see that the engine is the same as it is on my 2005 Citroen c3 1.4 the procedure would be the same I belive

top of the morning to you paddy haha no seriously thanks

When is the best time to replace the timing belt and water pump? After how many miles approx? Hope someone can help.

Ok, got a small request, I just looked at your videos. What would be a good Idea is if they were in the make, model of car ie if it's a 206 then a 206 playlist and if its a vectra a vectra playlist this would make is easier for you subscribers. just a thought

Mantao

is'nt life hard working on cars that little bit more space would help .getting your fingers in better ??? good vid thanks

I WISHED THEY USED INTERNAL CAM TIMING CHAINS LIKE BIKE BIKE ENGINES..THAT WAY THEY WOULD LAST A LOT LOT LONGER

6:09

dont need to remove the engine mount, there is room, abit tight, but i was able to do it fine .

para un peugeot 206 1.6

0:11

Could someone please tell me all the tools i would need to do the replacement shown in the video?

I have called the dealership to change the distribution and they tell me that being such an old car (1999) they will surely have to order the spare parts from an external distributor to find them. I take them there so they can put original parts on me, not what they intend to do.

You have to block crankshaft using 6 mm bolt!!!

So I guess you - just like me - have no idea where the original timing mark from Peugeot's crankshaft is.

I found a detailed and accurate project on the Avasva website.

You should have warned about the top water pump bolt is prone to shearing even with little presure !!!

Who uses water a coolant ??

Can you tell me plz the numbers of parts

9:10 belt looks lose, LOL

dear publisher, you shouldn't fix the timming belt tenser like that you did in this video, the manual says that you have to tighten it then adjusting its tens by hanging a 1.5 KG whieght while fixing it through the square open in th tens ... I will explain it here: 1- put a squre metal rod in the square openning in te tens belt 2- attach a rope with a hanging wieght of 1.5 KG 3- tight the tens then slowly loosen it untill the 1.5 KG wieght is shown perpendicular to the ground then tighten the tense nut. 4- if you don't make it like that, you will move the water pump ax with extra timming belt tighten which leads to corruption of the ax inner part and cause leakage of coolant fluid as it happened to me. regards

I've read that Peugeot since merging with Fiat Chrysler that they plan on coming back to the U.S. and sell cars. If Peugeot does they need to learn from Fiat's mistakes now that they are planning to stop selling their Italian brands in the U.S. due to declining sales. Here are some key items Peugeot will have to meet in order to be successful in the U.S. 1. American's do not like diesel engines for powering their cars, only trucks. 2. American's do not like small displacement for cylinder engines like Europeans do because gas is much cheaper in the U.S. than Europe. 3. American's hate timing belts on engines because they have to be replaced and prefer timing chains on our engines and car manufactures that once used belts have gone back to timing chains. 4. Most European brands including the largest, Volkswagen have a poor reputation for reliability and are expensive to repair. Fiat's sales in the U.S. declined steeply after reentering the U.S. market after a few short years after negative feedback online from owners of Fiat's 500 and their Alfa Romeo brand products. Now Fiat is pulling out their Italian brands from the U.S. market because of poor sales.
