- No nonsense guide on replacing the Serpentine Drive Belt in Prince engines. This one is a Citroen DS5 with the 1.6 THP, EP6. This should be the same on the Citroen DS3, DS4, Peugeot 3008, 5008, RCZ, Mini R55, R56, and BMWs with the N12 and N14 engine.
The correct belt size is a 6PK905. It may be tight to go on in which case you can fit it over the alternator and AC pulley, then hold the belt on the lower edge on the crank pulley while you rotate the crank clockwise with an 18mm ratchet. It should grab on the edge and pull itself on. If you still struggle you can go up a size to a 6PK910 or 6PK915, and it will be easier but still work ok.
OE numbers:
CITROËN 5750 RG
PEUGEOT 5750 RG
MINI 11 28 7 534 399
FEBI BILSTEIN 28903
BOSCH 1 987 945 747
I really appreciate all your DS5 repair videos! I just recently bought my DS5 THP in New Zealand and I am using your video as a guide to repair my own car. Thank you very much, sir!
You're very welcome! I'm really glad to hear that, it's exactly what I hoped would happen when I started making these videos!
Awesome. Thank you. Just used this on my 3008 thp. 👍
thanks for convincing me not to buy another modern car
Brilliant
I'm sure you have an idea how difficult it is to find a video of any work on a DS5. I'm about to change my belt, diagnostic says I need a new ancillary belt, is this the same thing, and do you have an idea about the reduction gear on a hybrid ds5? And any video on brake pads and disc replacement? Cheers.
Yes the ancillary belt is the drive belt, or sometimes referred to as the serpentine belt. Unfortunately I don't have personal experience with the Hybrid drive DS5.
It would seem I have the same setup in my 1.4 petrol C3 Picasso and I'm so glad I found your video. There was no mention of it in the official workshop manual, but I have that little tab. I can pull it, but it doesn't move the pulley (or anything else) and it doesn't seem to be coming out far enough to hook on. Been scratching my head all night trying to figure why it wouldn't release from there. Seem to have found the answer and solution, but our tabs are behaving differently... Have you known them to fail? Any suggestions? Thanks for making the video... +1 subscriber from Scotland 👍🏻
Glad I could help somewhat. I don't think I've ever encountered that exact problem sorry, although I do recall onetime where I believe I unbolted that whole pulley assembly and pulled it directly off. Maybe that could work in your situation?
Was pulley cord not releasable without taking wheel off?
From memory it might be possible, although probably quite a tight squeeze. It's a lot easier to just pop the wheel off.
I did it without taking the wheel off, but like he said it's much easier to take the wheel off first. I think it would have been quicker if I had taken the wheel off. Your video helped.
