Hi all, my first post on here so be nice! I purchased a 306 GTi6 over the weekend, however from reading the service history it seems the cambelt was last done in 2006 (and only then it was because, sadly, it snapped. It seems it had some head work done as part of this). Therefore I'm not taking any chances, and want to fit a new belt, tensioners, water pump, aux belt and pulley sooner than later.

I've been on CarParts4Less and searched for a replacement belt kit, however I now have a problem - there's a selection of 2 belts.

Belt 1

Belt 2

My car was registered new on June 1 2000 (Belts above are for pre and post April 2000). After a quick search on here I found the handy build date calculator (or rather, where it should have been - it seems long gone sadly). If anyone could help me with which kit I need that would be appreciated (I already have a fitter).

Who is fitting it? Get a water pump as well

You can't just rely on buying a "kit" to have the correct parts, they are not interchangeable.

You have to add a special "screw column" to a 137 tooth kitted engine if you wish to change to a 136.

Peugeot will not know at all (You cannot expect them to really as it could have been upgraded), mind there belt kits are well priced.

I've never had any issues with the later type of belt, yes the tensioners are plastic but so are the new older style ones in some kits

Thanks again for all the replies chaps

Miles - that's a valid point. It's possible it was upgraded considering it was a snapper back in 2006 (It had done just over 40k then, and it's only on 68 now), but I'm not taking any chances! I'll whip the cover off and see if there's a part number on the belt itself that I can cross-check (Why I didn't think of that last night I'll never know!).

Brilliant - thanks very much for that useful nugget of information Stan.

Just a quick update - the current belt is an Isoran 136RP unit - I therefore assume this is a 136.

Thanks again for all the help. I'll get a project thread up soon so you can share the Manstone love!
