Hey guys, I don't post on here much but I do read more than I post. I am now at 140,000km with the original timing and alternator belts, so I am going to replace them before I tempt fate, as I only see the car when my bro returns from Uni. So, now that he is home I am in the process of doing a lot of stuff , 4 brakes, 2 snows, did clutch and cv's mid '09. So, I was wondering if you guys could give me some pointers, as I am going to get myself some feeler gauges and adjust the valve lash after I do the timing and alt. belts. Is that the best order to approach it in? And does anyone have the correct specs for valve clearance/lash on the d15b2? Thanks and any tips or pointers are well appreciated, cheers.

 

yeah the timing belt it is ok if you do the timing belt first then valve lash then belts. the specs of the valve lash should be in the underhodd label i dont remember what they are and i dont have my manual with me if you cant find them underhood tell me and i will get them. as for the timging belt i would do the water pump to and front main seal since you will already have everything apart.

 

its .007 and .009
