Check the toothed pulleys for axial play and replace if there is any. Seems like the belt has "walked" towards the front edge, maybe never installed correctly. Good pick up.

 2.7 TDV6 timing belt damaged on front edge
		Doing the timing belt on our (new to us) MY12 D4 TDV6 with the 2.7 engine. Just accessed the front and found that there is damage along the forward/front edge of the timing belt:
Looks like a lot of the belts rubber mess has gone into the idler pulleys:
The belt seems to be running hard agains the front edge of all the pulleys with some lip overhang on the idler pulley and belt tensioner pulley:
I'm replacing the belt, both idler pulleys and tensioner - any special considerations to avoid this or anything else to check regarding cause of?

						SupporterI've installed the new belt centrally on all the pulleys and cogs. Have pulled it through two full crank rotations and it seems to be tracking well.
