anyone got one?

I need to change the cam belt on the van and just wanted to make sure there is no weird or wonderful thing I need to be aware of.

2.0 HDi or whatever it is they call it.

same as a peugeot boxer or fiat ducato.

many thanks.

Don't forget to remove the lockup bolts before you replace cover.

Can't help with a manual ....best not to plough ahead ...theres always something you need to know !!!!!

I usually turn over by hand once the belt is changed anyway,,,,,,,,

Belt tension is the only issue.

I have a Peugeot Diesel engine on my digger. When I changed the cam belt on that, the manual tells you that you need a special tension gauge and the job should be left to a Peugeot dealer.

My local independent mechanic told me that was a load of bollox and showed me how to tension it.

You normally lock the cam, the flywheel and injector pump pulley with locking bolts to preserve their timing, but I could never locate the one on the flywheel so I just didn't move it. and yes turn it over several rotations by hand before trying to start it.
