6pk1700. Below are the detailed specifications of the Peugeot 307: 1. Introduction: The Dongfeng Peugeot 307 is an elegant and uniquely stylish vehicle. Its front fascia resembles the majestic face of a lion, with the two headlights shining like the lion's eyes, exuding authority without anger—a characteristic inherited from the Peugeot lineup. 2. History: Nine years ago, the first Dongfeng Peugeot 307, equipped with unparalleled automotive technology and the passion of a lion king, raced across the Chinese landscape. Today, refined through years of experience, the all-new 2013 Dongfeng Peugeot 307 makes its debut amid high expectations from consumers. Peugeot re-entered the Chinese market in 1997, seven years after the Guangzhou Peugeot 505 exited China. This time, its vanguard was a model that had already won 16 best car awards since its launch and was named the 2002 European Car of the Year.
As someone who frequently repairs cars, I've found there's no fixed answer for the Peugeot 307 alternator belt model—it depends on the specific engine. For example, the 1.4L petrol version commonly uses Gates 5PK960 or similar models, while the 1.6L version more often uses 5PK1060. Here, the '5' indicates the number of ribs, and '960' or '1060' refers to the belt's length in millimeters, meaning the circumference length. Using the wrong model may cause slipping or accelerated wear, affecting the alternator's charging and the car's air conditioning compressor, leading to squeaking noises or sudden power loss. It's recommended to check the belt for cracks or deformation every 60,000 km. When aging, the engine bay may emit warning sounds. The best approach is to remove the old belt and check the printed code or verify it using the manual's VIN number. Ordinary car owners can simply visit a specialized repair shop and specify the engine type to purchase belts from brands like Dayco. Avoid buying cheap, low-quality products—OEM parts are more durable and safer. Drive smoothly with fewer sudden accelerations to reduce belt stress. With proper maintenance, it can last over a decade.
