    Evening all.

    My recent VTS purchase doesnt have any receipt for the cambelt/water pump being changed altho the previous owner said it was done 2yrs ago. I want to get it done for piece of mind. How much am i looking at to get these changed?? Im in essex can anyone recommend a garage/company to do this for me?

    Cheers

    evening,

    id recommend looking into purchasing the parts yourself and then taking them to a garage to get them fitted. that way you get the part cheaper and save money but still get the job done.

    Right ive had a quotation of £140 to fit a cambelt/water pump/tensioners and a new alternator belt.

    All i have to do now if find the parts. Any recommendations?

    same here get all my gear from 106parts.com only because its easier than going to the parts factor with a list but you got to pay via paypal on the site which takes 4days but if u buy the items off ebay direct on the shop via paypal next day. Or u could try GSF but there postage is summit to be said for!

    Whats the difference between getting a Cambelt Kit? Or just purchasing a cambelt and Tensioners? What extra do you get in that kit?
