Diesel certainly isn't going to do it any favours. Would think it could cause it to slip to start with and eventually erode the belt.

Mmm that's what I thought, trouble is new pump out of production for a Peugeot 406 1998. Will have to see if I can find second hand one.

Check your local motorfactors. There will be a recon option available
