Cam belt/chain?

Postby t1ct4c » Fri Apr 13, 2012 7:55 am

Hi,

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this post.

My 07 Megane GT 2.0 diesel is due a service in the next month and I have been getting quotes from various garages - however there seems to be some confusion over if the car has a belt or a chain and thus when it should be replaced.

Anyone able to offer advice or confirm which it is I would be most grateful.

Cheers

Dave

I don't know off hand but if you phone Renault and give them your number plate they will be able to tell you what you want to know :-)

All 2.0 dCi engines have timing chain. Whoever from whichever workshop told you 2.0 dCi has timing belt, should be avoided as plague, shot in the head by a rotten egg and *add yourself at will*.... :nut
