    Hello

    I would like to know what the current issue looks like when replacing the timing belt. Have these parts actually been modernized? Do you know anything about the fact that after replacing the full timing belt, it is quiet for a long time? I only read on the Internet that after the repair, the problem returns. The fact that most are old posts.

    You can also read that we can easily find an independent car repair shop that will undertake the repair. Four mechanics have already refused me (even those who specialize in repairing French cars) saying that they do not repair the timing chain in these engines.

    What is the case when a Peugeot is repaired in a Citroen service, can I count on "age promotion" in this case?

    There, in addition to the timing, there are other flowers in the engine regarding the variable valve lift.

    As long as the engine is cold it clatters. Nothing else is happening so far. On the website, they advised to come only when errors about misfiring start popping up ...

    Change the service, because such problems may be too late.

    Despite the fact that they advise this, I still want to have the car serviced. The same, although the approach is strange. Just what do I do when every other mechanic refuses to take on it.
    What else could be repaired apart from the timing? I don't want to argue that it will be it, I say so based on the opinion of the mechanics who had a chance to hear it.
    They haven't had such a possibility on the website yet because when I get there, the engine is already warm. Before the repair, I'll leave it overnight for them to check.

    Likes the valve seat to fall out or burn out.
