What is the recommended mileage , at which the cam belt should be changed on the 1.7 CDTi diesel. .

I'm going to retrofit the rear seat belt buckle with sensors,

I've ordered both the buckles cost £29.00 posted as opposed to £110+.

I have the wiring diagram just can't seem to locate the terminals for it so if anyone can help that would be good, even if you know what other Vauxhall car it's fitted and where it is I can go up the scrappy and get one.

Hi all, only had the gtc for 3 weeks now and loving every minute of driving.... I'm on 72000 miles now and a cam belt change isn't too far away ( I do 2000 miles a month ) ... It's a 2.0 cdti on a 12 plate

Roughly how much does it cost to have them replaced , when I had an Audi A3 it was good practice to have the water pump and tensioner a replaced at the same time .....is it the same with the VX ?


Cheers James

Hi all. I just want to ask when i should change my timing belt and water pump? I have a gtc 2l cdti with 56000 miles. When do i need to change. Im not sure if it has ever been done as their is no record. Only had car 8 months. Any advice appreciated. I dont want to wait incSe my engine gets ruined. Thanks for your help. Regards

My Astra is a 2011 model on a 60 plate and has a 1.7 cdti (125) engine. The mileage is sitting at 58k right now. When should the timing belt be changed and are there any pumps etc that need looked at at the same time?

After some digging about on the internet i seem to be coming up with loads of different answers to my question. 100k/10 years 100k/6 years 60k/6 years. Obviously i don't want to get it done the now if its a 100y/10k ratio. Hopefully someone on here can help.

Hi 

Does anyone have a how to guide for changing the Timing belt and Water pump on a 2014 Vauxhall Astra 2.0 Diesel?

Engine code A20DTH - 17C48924LBS

Wondering if anyone can help.

I had some work done recently to replace the passenger side wing mirror and glass on drivers side door, resultant of my GTC being vandalised. 

The issue I have (and have pointed out to the repairers when I picked the vehicle up from), is that I no longer have indicator, seat belt and almost inaudible front parking sensor sounds. All these were in good working order before the car was broken into and sent off for repair.

I guess the chimes etc go through spe

Hi guys,

Im after a Rear Seat Belt Buckle please, I dont know if I have got the naming correct, but its basically what the rear seat belt plugs into.

I only need the single one, which is driver rear.

My car is a 2011 Elite, so dont know if its different on the other editions.

Many thanks.

So 77 000 km behind and 10 years, outer and timing belt not yet changed. Heard that when changing outer belt you have to release the tensioner by taking the right inner wing away etc. Is it so? Any tips. Perhaps time to do timing belt, too? Is it normal job (done V6 several times so basically I can do it but never touched 1.6). What is timing belt change interval? How about water pump? Recommendation for kits?
