i have just bought an astra 1.7 dti estate 2001 reg izuzi engine. to be on the safe side i want to change cam belt. i have done this many times on other makes but this is my first vauxhall. any advice on any possible problems and are any special tools needed .thanks dave
 
Have now changed the belt, straight forward job but you do a need special tool to hold the camshaft at TDC. Also changed crankshaft oilseal apparently they are known for weeping, this can contaminate the cambelt and cause premature failure.

Good Luck, Dave
