Peugeot 306 hdi ticking noise - pug_leeds
I've had a 2000 (W) hdi for a couple of years now and its just developed a loud ticking noise which starts about 1,800 and lasts to about 2,200 rpm. Its more noticeable in 1st-3rd. Its done getting on for 80k miles. Does this sound timing belt/pulley related? Any advice gratefully received.

I'm no expert, but does sound like the pulley. I have same model 306 and my lower pulley went at about 68k. Previous posts on the site give details of similar. Initially I had ticking noise 1000-1200 rpm then found a 12" by 1cm strip of metal - this had come from the pulley. In the end ticking/rattling became much louder and also at higher revs. Garage diaginosed problem immediately before I'd finished explaining the problem!

Thanks for feedback. Local dealer diagnosed that the crankshaft pulley was the problem and replaced timing belt at same time.
