Only done one belt change on a DW8, but have been wondering if any of you bother to equalise the tension over the belt by loosening the pump and cam sprockets as the book describes? I remember watching darrens youtube vid and he doesn't seem to bother. Would a garage do this?
Also what do you use for belt tension, 90 degree twist?
This is a DW10 HDi, so pump doesn't need locking. And yes, I loosened the cam pulley.
For tension it was around 90 degrees, close as I could get it to the previous belt, assuming that to be correct. Peugeot use an electronic tool apparently.
