I have been asked to come down to London on the Monday 13th June to do a few Cambelts which the fuel cost will be split equally three ways :y So if anyone else is interested to get theirs done whilst I am down there please let me know :y
I can supply the parts or you can by all means supply your own :y
Cheers
Daz

Meant to say, does that mean you will be at Costa del Peckham with Mr Dundee and sampling the local first class dining and beverage facilities? ;D :y

He has ported heads and 3.0 cams - remember Marks thread about it.
As this is only 2 years ago, and I have similar mods can you keep us informed about what has happened.

Must be a kit failure, then, as MDTM fitted that one!

Makes me wonder if it's from the same batch as Jimbob's that failed pretty much straight away. :-?

Good point!!

I had a cam belt kit that failed on a V6 veccy about the same time as mark fitted that to jims car. I take it that theirs were also gen vx kits, as was mine.
It lasted just under 12,000 miles. >:( It was fitted by a pal who works for vx as a spanner and the correct kit was used to set the belt and tension.

Mmmm. My cam belt's due in 4k <shuffles nervously>. :-/
-
My Omegas belt is due now,(ALSO SHUFFLES NERVOUSLY) but on time only, well under on miles, but thats no comfort at all. :-[

Mine's not due for 30k, but I do have a genuine VX cambelt kit sitting here.. which now worries me a little!
-

Mines due in 4 months (or 15k)... ...no shortage of nervous shuffling on OOF today ;D

Mines got a contitech and is due in 39970 or 3 years and 364 days - no shuffling here. :D :)
-
With this in mind, do they have a sell-by date?
-
diesel owners do not no of this shuffling problem? can someone enlighten us? ;D
-

Yes - the packaging should have come with a Fit-By date on it.

Trying to work out your maths there... 40000-39970 = 30 miles :-?
Yours managed to get to the end of the road at least, so surely 29 miles more than you got? ::) ::)
-
ignore my maths, meant 25 more than I got - which was just 5 miles :'( :'( :'(
-
Must check the sell by date on the boxes from my kit tomorrow. ::)
