I'm doing a service and replacing the belt and idler pulls as it is 4 years old and has just turned 90,000km. Is it a requirement to replace the tensioner as well?
Also what is the interval for the fuel filter replacement on gesehen. We had it done in January but have done nearly 40k km since then.

In signature area you could do with adding more details about your model& if a J10 or J11, colour, your location.

The auxiliary belt and pulleys on the 1.6dCi are scheduled for replacement at 5 years/145,000 km. The tensioner is not mentioned in the maintenance schedule. Fuel filter should be inspected annually and on the J11 is maintenance free; not sure about the J10. The timing chain (not a belt like the 1.5) is slated for replacement after 10 years/290,000 km, if it ever comes to that.

OK
So its about due then on age. It was really low milage when we picked it up.
Is there a maintenance schedule available for the 1.6 as the Haynes doesn't cover it. The ones I have found online say different things depending on the country.

This is for the J11 but as far as I know, the 1.6dCi engine (R9M) is the same in the J10. If someone knows more than I do I'm sure they'll correct me.

This is for a UK spec vehicle. I haven't noticed any German J10 1.6dCi owners here. Maybe Dave in Berlin can do some detective work.
