Used timing chains vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The Peugeot 106 uses a timing belt (cambelt), not a timing chain, across all of its engine variants throughout the entire production run from 1991 to 2003. There is no timing chain fitted to any version of the 106, so you will not find this part at a breaker for this model. If you need the timing drive component, you should be searching for a timing belt kit instead, which will include the belt, tensioner, and typically the water pump.
Yes, almost certainly - the 106 was never fitted with a timing chain on any engine in any trim or year, so no such part exists to find. What you need is a timing belt (also called a cambelt), and breakers will have these listed under timing belt or cambelt kits. Double-check your V5 or run a VIN check to confirm your exact engine code, as this will ensure the belt kit you source matches your specific engine.
The 106 ran as Phase 1 from 1991 to 1996 and Phase 2 from 1996 to 2003, and while engine offerings did change across that boundary, the fundamental answer remains the same for both phases - all variants use a timing belt, not a timing chain. If you are sourcing a used timing belt kit from a breaker, your engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check) is the critical detail to supply, as belt and tensioner specifications can differ between engine families across the two phases. Confirm parts compatibility against your registration with the breaker before purchasing.
Trim level does not affect which timing components your 106 needs, as this is determined entirely by the engine fitted, not the badge on the car. The 106 was sold in various trims including XR, XT, Rallye, GTi, and Quicksilver, but two cars with the same engine code will use the same timing belt specification regardless of trim. What you will find is that performance variants like the Rallye and GTi used different engine codes to lower trims, so always confirm your engine code with a breaker rather than going by trim name alone.
No - the 106 GTi used a 1.6-litre TU5JP4 engine, which is a different unit to the 1.4-litre engines used in standard trim 106s, and the timing belt specifications are not the same between these engines. You must match the replacement belt kit to your specific engine code, which you can find on your V5 or by running a VIN check. Always supply your engine code to the breaker so they can confirm the correct belt for your car.
Both years fall within the Phase 2 generation (1996 to 2003), which is a positive sign, but fitment still depends on whether the donor car and your car share the same engine code rather than just the same model year. Supply your engine code to the breaker and ask them to confirm the donor engine code matches, as ancillary and tensioner specifications can vary even within the same phase of production. Never assume fitment on year alone - the engine code match is what matters.
