Title: DVD Purchased
Post by: mka306 on 12 June 2015, 10:20:59
I've just purchased the cambelt DVD for when it comes to changing mine but didn't think to ask if it is relevant to the 3.2 v6 engine, for what it cost I'm not really worried but thought i'd see if anyone can shed some light on this for me?

If that was you this morning, yes, it was the V6 one, so its the right DVD.

However, the 3.2 has a non adjustable idler at the bottom, unlike the adjustable type used on earlier V6s, so you can't "adjust" the right hand bank - its either correct or a tooth out.  The top idler remains adjustable.

It'll make more sense when you watch the DVD.  Enjoy Marks DTM Calib's knobbly knees :P

Sound, I'll have a good watch before I attempt it. I'm starting to worry now you mention knobbly knees, can't you do some clever editing, lol.
