    Disco 1 timing belt and squeal

    Hi,

    My Discovery 200 Tdi is coming up for it's 500,000 k service and the timing belt is due to be replaced.

    I also occasionally get a squeal from the front and wondered if there was anything else I should be replacing when she is pulled apart?

    The engine was completely rebuilt 80,000 or so k's ago. Runs like a dream, starts well and is super economical on lpg & diesel.

    Any help gratefully appreciated.


    Regards


    Martin

    My 200tdi started making squealing noises. The RACV came out and cut the belt on the air con. The pulley had ceased up.
