Doing the head, so might be a good idea to do the belt too (it is a good idea i know)


have 2 choices..

kit from pug, or kit from local motorfactors



any issue with using a good quality OEM one? or should i roll some Darwins up and spend for a pug one?


also, are there any differences in tooth count between the XUD variants? mine is an XUD9SD (turbo, cat, no IC) from a citroen.. best to check before as pug thinks its a (if i remember correctly) 136 tooth
Depends on the motor factor one if its a Gates or Continential it will be fine, if its a linglongshongchong i would be sceptical.
~I always use a motorfactors kit, usually a continental belt plus gates pulleys/tensioners

Belts are the same across the range, even fit the XUD7 I believe
Gates, Continental, Dayco are all the very best.

theres 2 different types of idler pulleys and waterpumps though.
gave the local motorfactors the number of it.. they use GATES kits so comes with the gates belt and associated peices.
Can't go wrong with gates tbh
