Peugeot 407 2.0 Hdi Cambelt/Timing belt replacement ( Detailed Version)

[@pallasathena55]

Brilliant thanks, I just changed the cambelt on my Citroen C5 with this engine. It was a little harder because the coolant tank is the exact same on the C5 but you cant move it easily because the BHI unit for the Hydractive suspension is in the way! Mostly it is identical to this though and my flywheel had a simple 8mm hole for the timing unlike your 407. Fun job, One trick I do to make fitting the new belt easier is to mark the teeth with paint like you do and fitting on the cam sprocket you can use 2 tie wraps to hold it while you work below to fit the belt to the crank pulley and the rest. Thanks for your videos and keep up the good work!

Thanks for taking the time to do this. I need to do the crankshaft oil seal so will need to do the timing belt to get to it. The belt, pulleys and water pump are recent so just going to clean up and replace the belt if contaminated with oil. I appreciate your style of working in the back yard with basic tools, although I have ordered the flywheel locking tool!

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Thankyou for a good comment mate. I 100% support professional locking tool is good thing to have and use. I think if I would do a cambelt now on any car I would do crankshaft seal and camshaft seal just to be on a safe side as its good to have it done and forget about it. And also they are not that expensive and then just other crankshaft seal then you do clutch.

[@davidmbell]

I’ve got the same engine in my Ford Kuga and have a leaking crankshaft oil seal too. How did the job go? Mine also had cambelt done only two years / 8,000 miles ago. Sadly.

[@DA-oy7zp]

@@davidmbell Job went OK thanks. Used the old seal along with the sprocket to push the new one in - 1mm at a time with constant checking so as not to deform it or push it in too far! Did the camshaft seal too but very tricky - needs a variety of washers and round things. Flywheel locking tool essential for torquing up the crank pulley to avoid damage to the timing socket on the flywheel. Belt fairly easy to replace, tippex marks help a lot with this. Good luck.

Evening, me again, sorry, managed to get the tensioner in, did bolt up finger tight then tried to use hex key to tension belt, it is like tensioner is working in reverse,I turn the hex key & if anything it seems to be giving more slack on the belt, what am I doing wrong, wish I could show pictures to show what I mean, I am stumped

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Hi mate is difficult to advise but use some phone camera or something make sure once again that tensioner is placed in a place correct as it needs to be finger tight 13 mm bolt as you did already but also one metal bit have to hug another little metal bit on a head. Tension itself is also weird as if you over spin a hex key then you loose a tension again I am not sure how to explain it properly.

[@cristiannitu5129]

Hi, great video!! What is the procedure if cam belt slipped 1 tooth and there is no refference to bring it back in place? Thanks

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Good question. If you have a cambelt slipped 1 tooth you should be able to stick 8mm lock pin to a flywheel and the camshaft pin hole would be off just by a millimeters so if you take of a cambelt and then put 17mm spanner on a camshaft bolt you should be able to turn camshaft by hand tiny bit until a 8mm hole perfectly lined up. Once lined up 8mm pin should be installed in to a locking hole. Then installing a new cambelt you would have to make sure cambelt pull is tensioned properly and a floating crank pulley sits right in a middle. I am sorry if that doesn't make it clear Its not easy to explain it without showing it

[@cristiannitu5129]

@@Mad4FrenchCars Thanks for your reply! It does make sens to me . I did comment on your video because so far I see there is an explination for every detail so that make it easy for people to understand procedures . For example in my case I got a 2005 307 XSI 2.0 HDI 136bhp RHR ,I had problem with starting or it just stop by itself while driving, I had checked and change fuel filter and fuel lines,new battery , alternator and starter in good condition. No problem with BSI as well . I have no lights showing on dashboard. So there is the point where I was getting confused and I asked some friends mechanichs ,they told me that the cam sensor or crank sensor are not reading well, I changed sensors ,the same story. So I arrived at the conclusiton that timing is not lined up properly (does have symptoms of slipped tooth) but sensors wont be able to give a fault or check engine will not show in this case . So I decided to change the timing rather than line it up as car has over 106k miles and I have no records that timing was ever changed. The problem now its that I dont have any markings for the previous position on the belt so I could find out from the tensioner ,and belt tension that was slipped so its the first case where I dont have any refference of belt position. Thank you

So you have put a cambelt on and then you try to turn engine by hand clockwise the cranck woodruff key wouldn't go towards a middle where it suppose to be? Have you tension it properly? Have you done any marking on a belt to make sure you put it in exact same place as a old one before doing it? Maybe it's out by one tooth or something can you make 2 full evolutions of engine with cambelt on?

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Where are you located are you in UK?

[@No-timeforimbeciles]

@@Mad4FrenchCars I am afraid I am located in southern France. Yes I put the new belt on, the two dots on the camshaft sprockets were in correct position discoloured links on the chain were in correct place, cam pulley was pinned, flywheel was pinned, took out locking pins & turned the crank on the bolt 4 times, tried to put locking pins back in, they would not go in, I think I have made mistake again, I did not put on chain tensioner, now when the camshaft is locked in place the camshaft sprocket marks are not aligned, chain must have slipped, so I have to take metal cam cover off again & do it all again. But even so, the crank timing Pulley is solid no play in it at all, I saw yours moved quite freely without belt on it

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

@@No-timeforimbeciles you deffinatelly want to have a chain tensioner installed before even trying to turn engine by hand. So now you will have to line everything up again unfortunately.

@@Mad4FrenchCars yes I know, at least I had not torqued down the injectors, had left them finger tight, & rather than take all 4 fuel leak off pipes out, I have just disconnected the one supply line & taken injectors out with leak off pipe attached, but I have all those 8mm bolts to undo that hold the metal cam cover & I threadlocked them ☹️ Should the crank timing pulley be easy enough to get off, is it held by anything ?

[@khalidacosta7133]

56:26 That pulley can move by about 1 tooth. Peugeot use a "centraliser tool", it's U shape piece of metal rod, 1.4mm in diameter :) If you want to get it perfect without relying on something else!

[@gotobedandtickler]

It's half a tooth however, the author has marked the belt and locked the timing. Therefore the geometry stays the same. This is evidenced by the video of the key way being central once the belt has been correctly tensioned. (if it wasn't the adjustment would not be right).

[@BeArtch]

Awesome video champ! Btw, I found a car at the wreckers that is the same as mine and has this engine and was wondering what you thought are the best parts to take from it. Most expensive to replace, I was thinking a high pressure fuel pump, ecu’s perhaps. What are your thoughts?

Injectors, high presure fuel pump if its a same fuel system as yours as there is a few different fuel systems. Turbo would be good but hard to get to.

@@robertszpua7884 hi mate really hard to advise without seeing it. I think that your timming is off so either a Tensioning or something went wrong. Check Tensioning pulley again to see where it sits an arrow should be in a middle of that U bit. If you remove a pins you should be able to turn the cranck back a bit to line the pin hole and if a camshaft hole is off then you can turn a camshaft with spanner a bit to line it up once a cranck pin is lined and cambelt off. It a sticky situation as you don't want to brake the rockers if you remove a cambelt and turn things individually. Should try to line cranck and then camshaft. Holes should line up every 2 engine revolutions

Hi Jay please try watch video again I have explained why crank pulley is moving the way it does, it's becouse its a flowting crankshaft pulley hdi engines have that to help with a cambelt instalation, then you put a new cambelt on you pull crankshaft pulley to one side so then you tighten a cambelt it goes right in a middle and little pin has a free play indicating you done it right.

can i make just one sujestion sir , oh great viseo by the way , BUT , i see people do this all the time when undoing a bolt , they tend to pull up on the bolt , expending a lot of energy doing so , had you took the socket and breaking bar to the other side , and push down to release the bolt , it is much easier to push down that to pull up , example , you would never pull up to release a wheel nut , you put a breaker bar on it and stand on it using body weight to release it , same thing applies to all bolts , push rather than pull .

I am not looking forward to the tensioner bit, I have phone with camera, but will have to look at instruction to get the view like you did, I am not good with hi tech gadgets, weather has hindered me alot last few days, lots of snow & sub zero temperatures, only possible to work 2-3 hours before fingers & toes freeze, warm up & go out again

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

I know the feeling mate. Tensioner bit is not as complicated as it looks in my video, you will be Ok mate.

dziękuję za film pomógł mi

I am glad to hear that.

[@btg0giresun]

U Made that look so easy 👍🏻👍🏻🤣

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

It wasnt as hard as people may thing but i am not gonna lie it is quite a job to do if you havent done it before. It does take most of the day

hi.my friend.i have a car same as you.i got a code P1351.Do you know what is going on?thanks!

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Hello my friend. Fault P1351 is a pre/post heating relay circuit. Which basicly means your glow plugs or glow plug relay is gone. In UK 90% of 407s have that fault but it doesn't really affect anyone as there is no real winter here so no preheating needed. But in a cold country it would cause a problem with starting. To get rid of your fault you need to replace glow plugs and if that doesn't fix a problem then need to replace a little glow plug loom too.

Hi mate which engine code it is your engine

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Someone asked how to line both pin holes but i cant find a comment anymore. So the holes lines up every 2 evolutions of the engine just keep spining your engine clockwise using a bolt on a crank and while watching a camshaft hole. Once camshaft hole ends up in a correct place then flywheel pinhole should be in a correct place to

[@khalidacosta7133]

Camshaft spins 2x for every revolution of the crank, it's why the timing pins only fit in once every two revolutions.

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

@@khalidacosta7133 100%

[@No-timeforimbeciles]

I tried for two hours to get the tensioner even in place, you must have smaller hands than me, could not even get it close, not being able to see I think is main problem, will try again tomorrow, did you get a child to fit it lol

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

You can try to put a belt on crank and camshaft and idle pulley and then put tensioner in place. I actually have a big hands but I managed access was horrible.

[@No-timeforimbeciles]

@@Mad4FrenchCars will try that, as you say access is horrendous, all I want to initially do is to turn the engine on the crank a few times before I try the key, thanks once again

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

@@No-timeforimbeciles ya you deffinatelly want turn it over by hand before you start it.

[@erikgaler2778]

Do you know the engine code?

Yes mate the engine code in this video is DW10BTED4/RHR very common engine in loads of pugs and citroens i think they even used it in few older volvos

[@princesibanda21]

Good video. But what’s the point of marking on the gears ⚙️ & old belt when there’s locking pegs 😂😂😂?

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Good point we'll its just a little reassurance to know for yourself that you didn't skip a tooth then tensioning and that everything is exactly same place like it was.

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Even with locking pegs some people still manage to put a cambelt in a way that they miss one tooth becouse of flowting pulley on a crankshaft in place there is still a tiny play where you can miss a tooth then doing a cambelt up. Don't get me wrong I don't really know how but there is a people I know who have managed it. So it kind of give a extra safety option to mark the belts and teeth up. Some people think they done it all right but they actually missed a tooth and it will run just not as good and belt is not gonna last as long. And if the belt goes before its time then rockers will all snap in half in a best case scenario and then it will become head cover off job.

[@DA-oy7zp]

@@Mad4FrenchCars I agree, it's an excellent visual confirmation everything is in the right place.

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

@@DA-oy7zp thankyou mate good to know I have like minded people. I think then doing a job like that there cant be to much of a reassurance.

Thanks man

[@No-timeforimbeciles]

Getting that crank bolt out, was not half as easy as you made it look, & the piece left behind the crank pulley was not easy to get out either, I have to get a new crank ring sensor as I stupidly tried prising it off with a large screwdriver & a piece of the outer edge snapped, but purely my mistake

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

We all do mistakes mate cranck bolt is always gonna be a pain to get out becouse it's a big bolt and they put that cement thing on it so that it wouldn't come out. We all make mistakes I fought I am gonna snap a glow plug today my hands was shaking. Not always things go to plan I try my best to show a process as it is but sometimes I have to film a scene like 5 times couse I said something which I didn't mean to say. So some bolts I have already undone before few times as I repeated a scene but most of it is raw and natural.

[@khalidacosta7133]

@@Mad4FrenchCars I looked it up, that "cement" is close to superglue which activates on tightening. Peugeot reccomend heating the bolt up to ensure it doesn't snap!

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

@@khalidacosta7133 ya the cement is quite a strong stuff. I would try to do a bit of forward and backwards action. Turn it tiny bit anticlockwise and then back clockwise. As you could see I didn't heat it up and it came out fine but I wouldn't be able to say 100 % that it's gonna work for everyone.

[@TheAmazeer]

Don't need to remove the starter you a hole right above the hole you showed that is on the engine wheel.. You can block your engine like that without removing everything

[@promestars]

Спасибо !!!

[@dirkvanbesien]

You better dont use a screwdriver to lock the flywheel. It is always better to lock the crankshaft with the 2 pieces of special tools to avoid big problems.I have seen many times broken pieces falling down. ( Tip of the screwdriver enz...) Some guys using the thoot blocker only en then complaining that its breaking. Of course its gonna breake because it is to small to do hold the force alone. The 8mm pin and the thootholder togetter will do the job without problems

Thanks for your video

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

This video is done with 2005 Peugeot 407 2.0hdi

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Engine code is DW10

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Procedure on a AH03 would be very similar as the engine is very similar, unfortunatelly can't advice as I haven't worked on one yet

[@kyefang8278]

What a detailed video! Great job. Just wondering why you need to mark the belt against the pulleys? I think as long as you lock the crank shalft and flying wheel, it does not matter how you put on the timing belt later. Do I miss something?

[@Mad4FrenchCars]

Yes mate its still possible to skip a tooth on a belt if you put it without marking its just a extra precaution to make sure 100% that you put it on exactly same as it was. If you skip 1 tooth then a work of engine will be different and cause problems.

[@kyefang8278]

@@Mad4FrenchCars Ah, that makes sense. Extra warranty of intactness. Thank you. Another question: in the case the cogs slip during the process, how can we restore the correct position?
