Mo Murphy Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Suppliers list two of these, an early one and a later one. What's the difference ? My engine was fitted in '95 so I always order the early one which fits but I'm curious to know the difference. Anyone know ? Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freeagent Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 later = shorter. later 300Tdi engines had a smaller pulley on the alternator, hence the shorter belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BogMonster Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 There are also anti squeak belts PQS000030 for the older type and PQS000040 for the later type, the second one covers all 300Tdi up to the end of production in 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
