Brilliant video, I'm a mechanic myself and the way you explain each step is absolutely spot on. Keep up the good work!
Thanks! Comment much appreciate 👍👍
Absolute legend did my own car as a apprentice and you made it so easy for me much love bro
Nice one! Glad it helped 👍👍
I just checked the timing belt today on my Z16XER Astra and there are small cracks on it. Means in it's 12 years, it's never been replaced. Poor show considering it's full service record (which I now believe was false). Thanks for the video, I've done a few timing belts and this looks far more straightforward than some of the other ones I've done, thanks for the clear instructions!
Thanks for the comments , glad it will help you 👍 there not bad to do really 👌
Diy i did it yesterday. Changed that timong belt on my 08 saturn astra, the american version. I did wait for a book to arrive to verify what i was doing. Was fun doing myslef with my brother assisting on the cams. Took us bout 4 trys. Thanks for your video. The only thing i would do differently, would be to get the cam locking tool. They wanna role, tool would have made it easyer. Was going to rent it but shop i talked to said they didnt have it after previously saying they did. Anyway good for another 100000 miles
nice one! glad to hear it.. thanks for the comments
Mines probably needs done i have full dealership history on my astra i bought no idea if it has been done tho its 14 years old 😂ive asked the dealership for its history in full
Excellent, easy to follow videos, i found your channel after searching for a Focus/Fiesta timing belt replacement guide, which was also very good, shame you are not my local garage, a young lady i know has just been charged £700 for mot work on a Mk6 Fiesta, two headlights, front shock and tyre, oil change etc and has been told the cambelt won't need replacing for a couple of years, i'm guessing he's Psychic! the cars fourteen years old with no proof of it being done previously.
Thanks for the comments! always nice to hear positive feedback 😃 haha yes definetly well over due really at 14 years!
Thank you so much. I know what tools I need before I do this. Torque settings too. Filled me with the confidence to do it myself.
👍👍 glad to hear it
Nice work Mate, that has taken all the guess work out of it, very straight forward, Thanks for the effort 😉
Thanks 👍👍🙌
Thankyou......you make it look easy.....did the belt on my 8v 1.6 2002 Astra..more tricky....this one looks easier.
Glad it helped.. thanks for the comments.. much appreciated 😃👌👍
Great guide! This video helped me change the timing belt on a 2007 1.6 Vauxhall Zarifa :D
Great to hear! thanks for the comment 👌👍
It’s the hardest Cambelts I’ve ever done - as I don’t have a buddy holding the cams, Vauxhall must do a holding kit for the camshafts I guess , I’m just going to check now, good job mate love your videos 😊
Just checked just £20 sealey tool for the A16XER engines and other applications - holds in between cam pulleys , will save the fingers😂
👍👍 yeah I’ve used one in my later video , replacing the belt on a 1.8 zafira 👌 . Glad you like the video 😁
Thanks. It was really easy to do with these instructions.
Glad it helped! thanks
Great vid, very detailed aswell. Mine will be needing done soon and now I have a clear idea of what I need to do 👍
Thanks for the comments , much appreciated 😁 glad to help 👌👍
Very well done video. With all the information specially the torque settings. 👌
Thanks for the comments 😁👌👍
That's great news as my engine is the Z18xer which is mentioned on your video, was just confused about the vvt part was the astra in this video a vvt
👍👌 glad to help , hopefully you get fitted ok 👌
Nice clear easy to follow video.. Nice one.. Alex.
Glad to help , thanks for the comment 👍👌
amazing video pure talent - how many hours did it take and if if was a garage - how much approx would they charge for the full jonb in 2024
Around 3 hours , will vary a lot depends on labour rates and quality of parts as a best average guess I’d say expect to pay around £400-£500
First time viewer. I like the way work and your explanation of work. Also like your parts and tools list. Look forward to your next video.
Thanks for the comments, much appreciated 👌👍 glad you like the content , there will be plenty more to follow 😃
Great video, well detailed :)
Thankyou!
Thank you, found just the little things you did a big help. 🙂👍
Glad to help! Thanks for the comment , much appreciated 👌👍
Do you have a video on replacing the camshaft pulleys?
Afraid not mate
Great video and very clear but just to check the torque for the both the idler and tensioner bolts is definitely 20nm plus 120 degrees as it seems a bit high. Thanks Sam
Thanks for the comment! yes it is what the autodata procedure sais mate 👍
@@diydaly thanks for reply and confirming, I was getting nervous doing the 120 degrees as it felt already tight but I guess these are bolts rather than the more common stud and nut.
@@sammason411 yeah I must admit I double checked as it does sound a lot lol
Thanks simple after your help.
Glad to be some help mate 👌👍
Superb. mate. Thanks for your time its appreciated .......New sub here
Thankyou! Comments and sub much appreciated :)
Great video, thanks
Thanks 👌
Hi, great video.
The engine management light has come on and the code is for the camshaft position sensor. Which I have replaced. It’s still on. The current is fine, checked with a multi meter.
So next is the timing belt. Hence watch your video.
In the video the cam sprockets are in the correct place before you mark them up with the pen. I don’t think mine are hence the eml and the car not running very well. How do I know what the correct position is when replacing the cam belt?
Lee
Hi lee, the crank pulley has a mark the line up or paint mark then the 2 cam pulleys have a line on each that both need to be pointing at each other on the inside
Hi buddy, i have a 2009 astra 1.6 sxi. On about 133000! I have no idea if or when this has been done. Do you know what's the mileage limit is on the belts & pullys? Or when they need to be changed?
Can’t remember the exact interval but it’s well over due if it hasn’t had one
Hi all. Been reading up on this job, love the video. I have a couple questions. 1st, i understand the torq setting of so many foot pounds, or newton, but what do you mean by 120 degress added to that? Second why does saturn, holden vauxhall want me to lock the fly wheel. I only ask cause the stud to secure that tool inti my fly wheel is stripped and will not remove. I guess i have a second part of that question, can i just put my car i. Gear with the wheels chaulked and also have locked the fly wheel? Thanks
You’ll need an angle gauge to set the angle after , if just torquing it the the correct nm setting 1st then , using and a angle gauge after to set an angle torque .. your best off ordering one of these.. ebay.us/E48k7K You could just lock it like you said or use a car in the flywheel teeth for the flywheel
This is a good video well made and explained. However, I tried this and would suggest anybody else trying this has a helper. My cams just sprung out of place and I now cannot get the marks aligned and in place to even try and put the new belt on. I must admit I did try to align to the marks on the camshafts where I can see DIY Daly has the marks on the opposite sides of the cams. I don't quite understand that I thought they had to align0- perhaps this is what I have done wrong. I now have two cams I can't align :-(. Beware of those star shaped recesses on the cam ends thy are easy to damage as stated in the video they are very shallow. I suspect I will be phoning around for a mobile mechanic this week.
Excellent video. If you used locking kit where would it go ? Thanks
It goes in between the 2 cams mate
You have grown a extra set of hands very useful would of liked to see you do it on your own
lol yes it does help having an extra pair of hands while putting the belt on! Had to do it on my own several times before though.. I’m luckily enough to work in a busy garage with 5 other lads so there’s always a spare set of hands about
Great video!! Superbly presented. I have a question would this exact procedure work for my vectra c 1.8vvt? I have a locking kit on the way but just wanted to know if how you have shown on this video would also work for my vectra. Thanks Sean
Thanks for the comments , much appreciated! Yes it may be slightly different but the video should be enough of a guide to enable you to do your vectra :)
Have you ever had to change the alternator on this? I only only ask as I've unbolted it but can't see what else I need to remove to actually squeeze it out?
Can't quite remember the last one I did tbh mate, not sure if you remove the front and rear lower engine mounts you can move the engine enough to get it out
Excellent video. Thank you
Glad you liked it! thanks for the comment, much appreciated :)
Thanks for the video. I have a question, How did you lock/secure the crankshaft to unbolt the pulley?
thanks for the comment, I just used a buzz gun so didnt need to lock it.. if I was using a bar id generally put it in 4th gear and get someone to press the brake hard down while undoing it.. or wedge a screwdriver inbetween the vented part of the disc and the calliper .. hope this helps 👍👌
Any tips on getting he crank shaft pulley off ? I’ve used an electric impact gun and haven’t had any success
really a decent air gun will work best mate , either that or a hi torque battery one, the Milwaukee ones are quite good
Thanks for video. Appreciate if you could post one for vw polo 1.0 tsi engine if opportunity arises.
Yeah im sure one will come up at some point 👍 starting to see a lot more of the petrols now mate 👌
The bolt you put in without the washer in order to move the bottom crank pulley to line up the marks. How did you remove the bolt without the pulley turning and marks misaligning?
If using a buzz gun it generally won’t move the pulley , if not you can put the vehicle in 4th gear and press the brake while someone loosens the bolt 👌
Now I can see whats involved and the amount of removing of parts before getting to belt
Thanks for the comment, glad to help :)
Excellent video, why do some people take the rocker cover off to lock the cam?
some may have a tool that locks the cam under the rocker cover mate
@@diydaly I’ve seen some videos lock the cam pulleys, AND take the rocker off and double lock it! Anyway, I’ve done it today with the pulley locking tool with your video! Thanks again!! 😁
@@Squadeditz arr nice one , glad you got it done 👌👍
Have a saturn astra same car same engine. Was told by mechanic that they couldnt install, a bracket on the fly wheel, to allow them to change the timing belt. Did you not show that step or did i miss something. Great video though i may do this myself.
no not missed anything, they may want to lock the flywheel but you dont need to
@@diydaly cool thanks. They wouldnt do the job. So either ill find someone or take the plunge and try myself. Good video thanks for the reply.
@@willmo1725 no probs , hope you get it sorted 👍
Great video. How long does the job take to do .
Around 2.5 hours mate
The shafts must be 180 degrees out of the sprockets, either that or your doing the job with it firing on 4
Good job thanks mate
Thanks for the comment , much appreciated 👍
Hi i can't find the part number i need for the cambelt and water pump for my astra h 1.6 thank you

The bottom crank, do you need to lock that to stop misalignment or do you not need to? I'm going to buy a kit to lock the top two just wondering if I need to lock the bottom as well? Thank you
you can just paint mark the crank mate 👍👌
@@diydaly No! I think you are not a professional!
For this engine you need to buy the fixing tools, and need fixing the camshaft in the correct position, two marks on the gears front of each other. And need to remove the valve cover, and insert the fixing tools the end of the camshafts. Need to fix the camshaft gears and the camshaft separately!!!
@@matyusvbollocks iv done a million timing belts and always just marked with tipex never an issue! (I'm only here for the torque figures since websites down and it's been a while)
Hi don't you have to change the waterpump?
hi Freddie , no the timing belt doesn't run on the water pump.. its driven by the auxiliary belt
Is there a recommended time, mileage interval for the water pump? Thanks
Just realised that you were 180 degrees out on the cams..but no worries...🤗🤗
👍
Excellent video well done lad
Thanks mate 👍
Going to do this on a mates car today,but he thinks the timing is off because he got a cam position sensor fault,and already replaced the sensor..question is can you see without the cam cover off if the cams are on time?
You’ll need to take the cover off mate , it’s really easy to strip down though and there’s loads of room
@@diydaly belt has been replaced..thanks for the 101 with tool dimension..made it quick and easy...for the cam position fault,i put a scope on the cam hall sensors,and found that the intake cam sensor was not doing its job..
@@n6y6h6 arr nice one! Glad to hear you got it sorted mate 👌👌👍
Brilliant thanks
Thanks for the comment 👍👍👌
Great video, have you got a link to a timing belt kit that includes the water pump aswell, i have the same engine as this one.
Thanks
👍 thanks, neh ive not done a water pump vid yet mate, as they only run on the auxilary belt I dont normally replace them with the cambelt,, if I get one in ill do a vid on it 👍
I just tried to fit my new cambelt really struggling to get it over the tensioner, i have locked the cams and bottom so all in correct timing, not sure what to do maybe i need another set of hands to make it easier?
@@jamiem5319 yeah they can sometimes be quite tight mate! another set of hands definitely helps at times! id try just having the belt only half on most of the way round.. that usually give the extra bit you need
@@diydalyThat's a good idea I'll try that tomorrow hope it goes on, thanks man.
@@jamiem5319 no probs 👍
Can i use the old bolts for the tensioner and pully?
yeah, its recommendated to replace them but ive resused them plenty of times in the past with no issues
Yes because the item i got they didnt send me bolts because I ordered them separately. I just really want to change the timing belt but i was recommended to change the tensioner aswell.
Vauxhall have just quoted me extra labour for putting a new aux belt on. They HAVE to take it off to get at the cam belt they're doing. How do they stay in business?
Daylight robbery 🙈😖 I don’t know how they get away with it!
Because you are better off changing aux belt also
@@bystander1489 They have to take off the aux belt to change the cam belt. There is no extra labour.
@@stephenboothby7446 Cam belt change is separate price same as if you went just for aux belt change its a separate listed job
Best regards. Would you like to answer a few questions about this particular engine? I actually want to buy an Astra H 1.6 16v 85/116, I wonder if this engine has a high pressure gasoline pump like a VW fsi engine, does it have a floating flywheel? I'm also wondering if the camshaft variators break down and is an expensive replacement, as are the vanos sensors? I am generally interested in whether this engine is a good and reliable choice? Thank you.
I think they run a solid flywheel but that may depend on the exact age .. to be honest mate they are a fairly reliable engine and don’t seem to have much bother 👍
@@diydaly
I had a BMW e 46 petrol, it had a lot of expensive parts, it had problems with the vanos sensor, for that reason I am afraid that this Astra has the same parts ... Thanks for your reply.
Yeah them vanos are a pain , the Vauxhall’s do have variable pulleys but aslong as the oils changed regular they don’t play up
Thanks you for your reply
No probs 👌👍
Hi , all , I managed to get the crank pulley off but had a issue with the idler, as the bolt damaged . But the belt git on and timing spot on so left old pulley on until until got a better tool. Ran the car and its great . But then the high pitch squeeling came back so I belive its the idler . Bought tool and started to do it all again . Lined up timing but when the lock took is in the left crank dose not line up with the marks but the right crank dose. So now iam confused is the timing out now as other marks are right. And can I turn the top left crank to right marks or will this knock it all out .
I take it you mean the cams not the crank!? (The 2 top pulleys) if it’s not lining up your timing must be out.. align it all (as close as you can , as it’s obviously out) pin up what you can then remove the belt , realign the cam pulley that’s out to the correct mark then refit the belt and tension as ness
Thanks for getting back to me I did what u have said all the marks in the middle line up right across the top cam and the locking tool ,I then checked it all and out the belt back on iTunes it all around twice then put it all together and started it , but now it seams really noisy, and high tapping I have looked into just scrapping it now as feel it has all gone wrong , as the first time it was amazing and family said well done but if it wasn't for the noise coming back and I had to change the old idler, couldn't get the old one off car would be fine but bow it's all mess . Thanks all the the info , I really did help me in the long run .
@@paulhughes5544 arr right sorry to hear you’ve had a lot of hassle with it then!🙈😬 hope all works out
It s OK, was trying to sort it so can go out with kids but , never mind , anyway I have decided to just leave it for a while to refresh my head from it all , and have another go later on . Thanks to your video I wouldn't of even attempted this bit I did prove to other that belived I couldn't do it, I did just sad that it is not that way now . But if I sort it I'll let you know many thanks.
@@paulhughes5544 yeah update me if you do mate 👍
You are a life saver :D after seeing this im gonna order the parts and do it myself :) Awesome video.
You wouldn't have happened to replaced the magnetic clutch/Clutch Coil on the AC Compressor on one of these cars would you? :)
Nice one , glad it’s give your the confidence to attempt it yourself 👌👍 there a nice Cambelt to do as there’s a lot of room .. if it’s your first one it’s worth buying the cam locking tool as it helps a lot with fitting the belt.. I’m afraid I haven’t do the AC compressor clutch on one yet .. thanks for the comments though .. much appreciated 👍
@@diydaly Thank you for the answer :) I've seen the video where you replace the Audi AC Compressor, i was thinking about removing the whole AC compressor but was wondering how im going to recharge the system, Is it possible to do that with one of those "DIY cans/tubes" after removing the AC Compressor?
It is possible but there not the best to be honest, really the system wants refilling with a decent machine, usually you can find an AC Regas on R134a for around the £40-50 area if you shop around
@@diydaly Ok thank you🙂 I'll see with a buddy that works in a shop if he can refill it after. Normal shops around here takes at least £150-200 for a refill
Ouch bit dear round there then! lol
Hi i wonder if some one can help me , i watched this video and took to myself to change my timing belt. As i have squealing sound coming from it and it is worn . I lost my job 2 years ago and i know a few things about cars. This video is amazing with all the details. I followed it all , and got to taking the crank pully off. But it was so hard. The bottom pully ended up moving as i tried to undo bolt. And no way i could get it off. I was guttered as i needed the car as kids off school and dont really trust it now as high millage and the noise. I have watched other videos about how to get past this as i was so close to doing it. But now i feel i that i have put it all back together now as family rely on it , i have it in my head that because the pully moved as i tried to get it off i may off knocked it all out of postition. It starts ok and drives really quiet , just wanted a peace of mind that it is ok and any ideas to get the pully off would help, as iam lost and dont have the money for these big garrages to price me ove the top many thanks
If its really tight you will need to lock the flywheel, have you used a decent / powerful impact driver?
Hi i have not got a impact, just using a socket set, i did try and lock it buy it moved as i tried. I the end i locked the top cam shafts but still no go. Its a pain ,as when it gets hot the engine, its squeeling, it seams to come from middle tensioner, but when i look at belt, its forward, then i think it should be , as i have had the car for 7 years and its never been changed , and it seams worn and high milage . I asked a garrage but they wont change just the belt or fit it if i have bought it .
Many thanks for the help anyway, and getting back to me , i have seen videos on you tube , and some ways of doing it so might give it another go when in the mood.
Hi all i,have just bought one off ebay and locking tool , so ill use your video again thanks bit hopefully this time i wont get till the place i got last time . Ha ha
@@paulhughes5544 haha nice one 🤞
Thanks bud
Glad to help , thanks for the comment 👌👍
You can replace belt without taking the engine mount bracket off,
I just find it’s loads easier with it off , better access
how many miles was on that belt?
It was a while ago now but if I remember correctly it was about 80,000
Hello do anyone know the exact number of the socket for the cam belt e10 or e12 thanks
think they were e12 if I remember correctly
@@diydaly thank you
@@gavin9873 👍
Great video. 👍
Thanks for the comment Chris 👍👌
@@diydaly whats a reasonable price in labour just for fitting?
I've brought the gates kit with waterpump, in 2 minds to do it myself or let a garage do it.
@@Litesnip2022 Id say a garage would want to charge you a minimum of 2 hours labour , only problem you may have is finding a garage that will let you supply the parts.. If you do fancy doing it they really arnt a bad one do really mate.. ideal starter cambelt 👍
@@diydaly I manged to fit the kit myself yesterday. Car sounded perfect.
But today I could hear a ticking type of sound. Sounded like it was coming from the cams. But I put a screw driver by the lower timing belt cover and put my ear to it. It sounded stronger and like it was coming from the timing belt.
Stripped it all back down and noticed play in the tensioner (video on my channel) is this play normal or is this a faulty part. I brought the Gates kit with water pump from autodoc. But after stripping it all back down I noticed the tensioner in the kit is branded litens not gates. Not sure if there the same company, but I expected a gates branded one. Having to file a claim with autodoc now to get it replaced. Not holding my breath though because they come across like they couldn't care
@@Litesnip2022 just had a quick look Chris , it doesn’t seem right that.. I have had the odd tension that does have some (in/out) movement but I’m not 100% sure on that one with checked against a new one .. it was a while ago that I did that belt .. will try find out for you too
Cam locking tool?
It’s a tad easier with the locking tool mate , I just didn’t have one on the day 👍
@@diydaly Thats why this video its a joke!
Is this the same for vauxhall 1.8 vvt engine?
Hi luke do you know the engine code for yours or if not I will be-able to check with the reg number for you mate
Hi mate yes it’s a 07 plate Vauxhall vectra 1.8 vvt 140bhp I’m pretty sure it’s a z18exr
@@lukeholland5780 👍 yes mate if it’s the z18xer it’s exactly the same procedure 👌 if you gona do it it’s Probly worth getting the cam holding kit as there only £15 .. you can do them with out as I did but it can be abit tricky holding the cams as the 45 torx bolts have really shallow heads 👌 ebay.us/Dri0Db
Hi thanks for advice mine doesn’t seem to have any timing marks on the cam pullys so would it work marking the bottom crank pully up with the marking. Taking 1st spark plug out making sure it’s at the top dead center and going off that as timing markings?
Yeah you could do that to make sure but to be honest if I was doing it and there weren’t any marks on the cams I’d just line the crank up then paint Mark the cam pulleys 👍
Would this be the same for z16xep engine great video btw
Thanks for the comment 👍 They’re very similar , may be a few slight differences but fairly strait forward still 👌
@@diydaly ok thanks for the reply and help thank you very much
👌👍 hope you get it sorted , if you attempt it I’d recommend buying the basic cam locking tool as it saves the most awkward bit of the job (holding the cams still) amzn.to/39sWTMd
Definitely will get that ordered thanks
👍👌
Please lock your camshafts before changing your timing belt.
thanks for the comment
change timing on a VVT engine without camshaft locking tool is a joke
Skiinkl bycd😂😂
Absolutely not correct video!
The timing is not on line, check the two camshaft gears. Intake gear need to 180 degrees turn to right. Check the factory marks on the gears, and the factory manual.
This video just a joke!
