Title: Cambelt DVD
Post by: mantahatch on 03 April 2012, 13:15:37
As the shop is closed for maintenance. Does anyone know if there is a DVD of doing the timing belt on the 2,0 engine please.
I have got the V6 and it is great.

Thanks in advance.

The 4 pot one is not a patch on the V6 one to be honest. Quite dark, no narration.

I personally reckon, if you can do a V6 (after watching the DVD), a 4 pot is easy with simple instructions :y

Understood, thanks for the honesty. Thing is it on a 2.0 Astra. I know horrid wrong wheel drive. And last FWD I did was a 1991 Cavalier 1.8.
Actually quite enjoyed doing the V6, watched the vid about 6 times over about 4 evenings and then went and did it. Sooooooooo easy with RWD  ;D

Those 4 pots are all the same - simple wedge, old off, new on, don't get it a tooth out.

The V6 does need the DVD IMHO :y
