- This is how we installed the timing belt on our 2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel which is scheduled to be done at 100,000 miles. We also replaced the water pump as well as the tensioner and idler pulleys.
Update
Here’s a video on the tensioner.

I'm not sure if you're still around, but i just watched your instructional video. i have a 2014 Chevy Cruze 2.0l diesel that we bought brand new in 2014. just hit 200,000 miles. dealership did the 1st one and thanks to you i get to do this one and save a few bucks. Thank you for posting this.
Everything go ok?
Thanks for posting this video. My wife's Equinox will be needing this in a couple of years.
I replaced the belt on my car Saturday. Watching your video definitely made me make the decision to replace it myself. Thank you.
Bradley Herrman that’s awesome and thank you for sending me the video on the tensioner! How’s the brakes on yours? I have over 108.,000 on mine and the front brakes still have over double what’s necessary for inspection and the tests are nearly like new, just wondering if others are getting such long life from their brakes.
Wayne, my brakes are well over 50% remaining as well. I pulled the rotors at 100k and painted the hat and calipers. I put anti-seize on all the mating surfaces as well. I was worried that at 200k when the brakes wore out that everything would be rusted together and would require replacement.
I made a video of the belt replacement as well. I ended up doing about the same thing you did, but I forgot to record the entire reassembly. I did get pretty good video of the tension adjustment.
Thanks. Very helpful.
196k now, time to do it again already.
Hi, I just replaced the timing belt on my 2014 Cruze diesel. Everything went smoothly but now it won’t start. Turns over smoothly.
Wow, not sure what to say on that one, hoping it's just something simple.Did you verify the marks are all correct still? I talked to one person that was one tooth off and it would run but barely. Remember, it's the side without the tensioner that really counts. I haven't watched yet but this other video came up, perhaps there's something there that will help czcams.com/video/gQnj3QNsQIM/video.html
Good day is there anyway I can check the timing without having a new belt? I have a cruze that's not starting and need to verify the timing. Where does the timing marks line up to on the cam and Fuel pump?
Wow, it’s been quite a while, trying to recall. Pretty sure the fuel pump doesn’t need timing, it’s not an injection pump like an old school diesel, but the crank and cam markings I thought I had on the video but it’s been so long since I’ve watched it myself I can’t remember. It’s actually time to replace my timing belt too, coming up on 200,000
Watched it again myself so scratch that, I guess the fuel pump does have to be timed.
Do mind pointing me to the exact time in the video where it shows the marks. Thanks
I can see the timing marks on the crank pulley and where it lines up to on the block but can't see where the cam and Fuel pump timing marks line up to.
I did like you said, made sure belt was making contact in all 3 spots with old belt.. no marks on the old belt it's self but when I go to put the new belt on the marks on the new belt are way off any thoughts
rstebb311 wow, be very careful you can bend the valves. I will help in any way I can, just let me know.
@@waynenocton9749 the timing on the cam sprocket is 1 tooth off from being lined up with the line on the belt.. pretty sure nothing has moved 🙁
rstebb311 sorry for delayed response, remember, the belt pulls on the non tensioner side, that’s the count that matters, it’s easy to let it slip one but super important things are right, turn the engine over by hand two complete revolutions and feel for any “interference”. Recheck marks and adjust as necessary. Don’t fire that engine until it’s right! What area are you in, Pa here.
I'm in MI. I spun it by hand many times... Reassembled everything thing.. started everything sounds fine.. I mean it's my first diesel so I'm not sure.. guess I will take it for a test drive
rstebb311 one tooth off will probably run, remember it’s a single cam diesel and the other pulley is a fuel pump, but not a timed injector pump so not critical or possibly even not timed at all, not sure there. Keep us posted! How many miles? I just had to replace my oil cooler lines, a 15 min job but $70+ parts and wow, they were so brittle I highly recommend replacing them by like 150k.
Wayne , Thanks for the video. At 85k, it will be coming up soon. Just wondering if you have found a way to replace the trans fluid?
David Duffy yes they have fill and drain plugs, just no dipstick and claim to need no service until 100,000 miles although my transmission was replaced under warranty at 86,000 IIRC.
Great video! It looks fairly straightforward. If you line up the marks on the belt to the pulleys, does that mean there is no need to have alignment tools to hold the cam?
I am at 123K miles and just ordered the belt and water pump. I am going to just replace those two parts now. If the pulleys feel normal they won’t be replaced at that time.
That’s right I didn’t use any special tools.
Nice job. thanks.
Too many people are scared to attempt this and get raped by repair shops.
You dont show how lock the crankshaft to put off the damper (main poley) Im sad :-(
ElJarriUSB if I recall correctly it was a non issue, there were Allen heads and a center bolt but none were hard to loosen. Our main focus was on not bending the valves so taking video suffered a bit.
@@waynenocton9749 This one is an Orlando with the same engine but the damper is diferent, just have a single big bolt.
Did you ever figure out the tensioner adjustment? In the video it sounds like you just put it back to the factory setting.
Bradley Herrman I didn’t learn anything more on the tensioner, but at the same location it seemed to be a decent tension to me. The other reply was me, I just did it from my other CZcams account in error. The older and tensioner were pricey and maybe not necessary but I figured I’d go ahead and make it all new.
I watched some videos for other Opal/Fiat engines that have a similar setup. It looks like there is an arrow on the tensioner that lines up with a hole on the tensioner bracket when the correct tension is achieved. Thank you for the quick responses!
Bradley Herrman wow I’d love to see that, link if able, cheers.
This is a decent video for the adjustment czcams.com/video/7cgyyPTTxxk/video.html
Bradley Herrman excellent, I’ll add that one to the description, thanks!
140k in 3 years on mine. Timing belts a breeze.
You need a airplane.
Did you use the special tools that GM says you are supposed to use?
Boog8302 no, just normal tools.
Wayne Nocton sweet. Thanks for the reply. I have been neglecting changing mine. I have the parts just didnt want to pay for the special tools that GM suggests.
Boog8302 I’m not even sure what tools they recommend, but the job was easy. It does have the possibility of damage if things go wrong but use the painted marks on the belt and it’s all good.
How much do you think it will be to replace at a dealer?
Not sure really, I’d guess $500+
@@waynenocton9749 I just called a dealer replacing timing belt. 3.5 hrs labor $577.50 and $98.50 for the belt before taxes.
