Hey guys.
Me again
Err.... My 95 300tdi disco 1 is in need of a timing belt change. Doing it for peace of mind as I have no idea when it was last done. And would rather it was done anyway as it'll get abused off road.
But here's the problem..... All websites seem to go off chassis number when it comes to which kit I need. Plan on changing belt, idler, tensioner.
BUT.
The engine isn't the original so how do I know which I need? (can supply engine number if needed.) As far as I can see bearing in mind the aircon pump is in the way I cannot see a yellow mark on the timing case which would suggest it's not had the mod done.
So am I safe ordering the early type kit or would I better off ordering the later type?
Reading crap off of Google is just confusing the matter even more.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
Robb.
