[HDI] Timing Belt Interval & Single or Twin Cam

[David McKray]

Hi guys,

Can you tell me the interval for timnig belt replacement for the 406 HDI (90) 1999 T reg

The service book says "For timing belt replacement please refere to your dealer"

My local mechanic looked in his book, and it said 120,000 miles, that sounded too long for me.

I searched the internet and could not find it. I did find that the 1.4HDI interval is 260,000 Kms , so the 120,000 miles for the 2.0 could be realistic?

2nd, is the HDI 90 single or twin cam? I know the 2.2HDI is twin cam

Thanks guys

i would recommend before 60k. Pug say 72k-80k depending on model. Heavy use is recommended at 36k (taxi for example)

The interval is 96,000 miles. While I haven't come across any that have broken early, A few people on this ng have, so maybe 60,000 or 72,000. Also stick to the 5 year time interval if you do low mileage.

Single.
