This one caught my attention as I’d done the timing belt on my ‘11 plate Scenic with 75k on the clock. I use the same timing belt kits as well. Great quality. I thought the timing belt was just about due but I found a Gates belt had been fitted and it was over the edge of the top pulleys and was partly worn away from rubbing on the covers. The new belt sits where it was supposed to, so maybe the old one was fitted incorrectly. It was also not tensioned properly. Only issue was the engine refused to start. Left it overnight and it started first time. No Idea why but it’s run flawlessly since. Love your videos.

The belt snapped on my mom's Juke, after 4 weeks I am almost finished with the assembly, only the piping remains. I waited the machine shop for 3 weeks to fit the new valves. It is doable at home, you need to jack only the right side. Taking it apart is a bit messy, DO NOT try to unbolt the exhaust manifold, unbolt the turbo flange instead - 3x 10mm bolts. The shop was asking 1500 euros for the job - I understand that time is money. Gaskets, valves, timing kit and machining costed me around 350 euros plus 100 euros for jack stands and torque wrenches. Used 7mm drill bit to position the camshaft, when head is off, setting TDC is easy. Double checked the positioning of the cyl 1 & 4 lobes in the manual. First diesel engine repair and I must say sticking to mid 2000s gasoline engines is good!

The Renault 1.5dci is a good engine. My last car had it and I did 340,000miles before I traded it in. Do a regular oil change (I did one every 6,000 miles) and change the belt every five years or 80,000 miles and it won’t let you down.

I've just bought a 2006 Mégane 1.5 DCI, just turned 80k and on original belt! Booked in for immediate replacement as it's cracked all around on the outside, but I agree, brilliant engines

Replacing my Duster 1.5 dci belt kit. Do you remove the timing pins before tightening the crankshaft bolt? Will it damage them or the crank/block? Also I wish you had mentioned your dislike of Gates on here, I made the mistake of buying one and now I want to change it, the tensioners are rubbish.

@carlospl9475 Жыл бұрын

If you have already put the engine on timing and installed the belt and setted the tension You can remove the pins since all the pulleys have keylock so even if the engine turns It doesnt matter cause It is already on timing. The engine Will turn once It starts so yes, It doesnt matter that much even It is the BEST to Torque the crackshalft pulleys without the timing pins so you wont break the engine block or pins

My local independent mechanic (SW France) says 6 years or 90,000 kms (whichever) comes first on these Renault K9K 1.5 dCi engines. Had mine and the water pump changed 3 months ago on my 2017 Duster.

Hey! Thanks very much for this explanation! You made it look easy haha. I've got a question, at minute 4:57, when you are replacing the water pump, I see that the engine is lifted up without the support below. How do you do it to support the engine when the car is up? Isn't supposed to be supported on the bottom while the engine fixation is off?

@ssss-df5qz 7 ай бұрын

You support the engine from the sump with a nice soft piece of wood between the jack pad. I always try to get the jack centred under the stronger parts of the sump, the edge closest to the crank pulley side. Don't support it centrally on the flat bottom of the sump as it can crack.

@ssss-df5qz 7 ай бұрын

Don't forget to mastic the two water pump bolts on the left hand side of the pump. The bolt holes go through to the water jacket and it can leak if you miss this step. Trust me, I know. I have to pull the one I done today apart again tomorrow just to do this.

@cstlloj 7 ай бұрын

@@ssss-df5qz thanks for both answers! Yeah I could imagine that he is putting something below the sump, but at some point he lifts it up quite high, so I was wondering how does he still support the engine when he lifts it so high. Maybe you were already meaning that and I did not understand then. About the screw of the water pump, when you talk about to mastic, do you mean to put the Loctite 270? I have a Renault manual for the K9K and it mentions that one of the bolts requires the glue, but doesn't say anything about the mastic. Just with informative porpoise, I'm working on a Citan 111CDI (OM607=K9K)

@@cstlloj you need a jack to lift that high. You also need to unbolt the rear engine support. To get the engine mount plate out. It is a pain otherwise.

If you have a set of drill bits you can try each one until you get the right diameter and lock it that way

Hi Baz, Lots of love and respect from your fans in India. Needed some help with the same motor here on my Duster 110 dci K9K. There is a slight oil seepage on the Turbo Intercooler hose where there is a plastic tube outlet for a hose that goes to the Boost Pressure Sensor. Its really not alot but sure seepage on spirited driving over the weekend. Shall I replace the pipe? Also, does that seepage indicate a small performance drop on initial acceleration? The technicians here keep telling me the K9K 110 has poor initial acceleration in the 1st and 2nd gear but am sure something's off. The car has been regularly serviced and nothing's been skipped. Recently had a Vaccum Solenoid failure and it was changed. When it failed the boost was only around 2K RPM and there was a bit of oil sucked outta the Turbo. Had the EGR unit ( Valve, Exhanger and Manifold ) cleaned thoroughly and I wonder if my Turbo's on its way out. No shaft play on compressor end. Any tips?

Hello Baz, I wish you a good day, I really liked your video. I have a question, what is the size of the Renault 1.5 DCI crankshaft locking pin? There is very complicated information on the internet about this. Also, are the dimensions of the Renault 1.5 DCI and Renault 1.6 16 valve crankshaft locking pin the same? There are different opinions on this subject too.
