Have a look on ebay for a handbook. Breakers are selling them for a couple of quid a time. For cambelts and tensioners - also water pumps look at GSF or Eurocarparts.

If you have the service maintenance book (which is separate to the handbook) it will give you the timing belt replacement. The one that came with our 2004 mark 1 C5 gives petrol engines at 75000 to 80000 miles and HDi diesel engines at 100000 miles, both for normal use. Severe use reduces these to 60000 miles and 80000 miles. There are reports here though of belt failures at lower mileages on the 2.2 HDi engines. There are also reports of the water pump vanes wearing away and overheating so if/when you do the job it would be good if you could give a post on what you find.

Seen 3 2.2HDi engines with belts give up between 90k and 100k.
