Re: Timing Chain Stretch - who has had the problem?
Hi Chris, I had to have my timing chain tensioner and guides changed at 17k and even though my car had documented history because the services were not from Peugeot dealers Peugeot didn’t want to know even though they knew of the problem with...
5WEEKS!!! :roll: they could have rebuilt a dozen engines in 5 weeks never mind diagnose a fault.Hope you get it sorted sooner rather than later fingers crossed :eusa-think:
Yes it’s been a great year of events and hats off to you Jeff & Francis for getting to all those meets :clap:
We’ve done really well with the weather too which makes all the difference. Looking forward to 2019 and catching up with all you lovely RCZers :dance:

remember Peugeot bolts may not seat correctly in the jag alloys :eusa-think: you need to check if there are differences between the two manufacturers bolts. Thread and seat :thumbup:

This guy needed more clearance for his big brake kit and machined a little off his alloys to make them fit.

These are gonna look great on your Z :dance: you’ll need a bore size of 65.1 then they will sit perfectly on a set of hubcentric spacers without the need for spigot rings :thumbup:
