Everything on order so a job for the weekend maybe. One thing I have noted reading how to do it watching the videos etc is it seems fairly straighforward. Not done a cambelt in years , well many years. I was always told recheck the tensioner after a few hundred miles. Never seems to get mentioned in these FL 2 belt changes. |

It's buried away behind covers so you'd have to do a certain amount of dismantling to get at it again. Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

I will do it with the intention of checking it again, but will probably forget to do it. |

It's self adjusting, so compensates for belt stretch as the miles pile up. There is a small inspection hole in the cover for checking the tensioner pointer, but it's impossible to see with the engine in the vehicle, and what's the point anyway, as the belt is designed to last 150k miles.

The belt will outlast the 150k change interval by a considerable margin. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car.

I changed mine ( TD 4 ) at just over 150k and it had no visible signs of wear, cracking etc. |

It's a gamble, I'd not rest past 80k. Older diesels used to be 50k change intervals. . Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

I bought the car at 10 years old with just over 150k and did the 10 year service as prescribed by landrover. The great price I bought the car at reflected the sizeable chunk of change it would cost to pay a garage to do the work ....... Lucky I can do it myself 😁 |

If you are willing to risk it that is fine. I think you are in the minority on here. |

The problem with cambelts is that if everything is normal they don't show any signs of wear, it's all internal, then one day they say sod it and leave you with a rather large bill and in the cases of older cars no car. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

I replaced the Cambelt stuff and Auxillary stuff on all my previous cars different makes at 60,000 miles. Also do the front oil seals since I am there anyway.
