If you buy an Aux Belt kit from SKF you get the complete tensioner assembly, water pump and aux belt.

[MaxV6]

ordered skf cambelt kit and gates aux belt kit......   can anyone provide a link to the correct O2 sensors ?

[chrisgixer]

Genuine Bosch

Same sensor from a factor could be had from a factor for £50 odd last I looked. So ring around quote your cheapest price each time, then go back to the first guy and see if he'll match.

All parts in slough are good that way, if you have one near you?

AND with windscreen wipers attached...

Oi! I said I was drunk sorry

Crank sensor - genuine on TC.

What is a genuine crank sensor?  I bought a Siemens one from an ebay supplier last year for about £40 and it's started to play up already! 

Mind you it started just after I'd changed the dispack so the wire had been disturbed, which I was told can kill them. 

Anyway I thought that the genuine crank sensors were either Bosch or Siemens? 

[chrisgixer]

Vx only. You got a vx dealer near that cave Sir Digger?

Choice of 2!!    The Mig is better served in terms of parts and servicing than I am round here!!

bloody ebay sellers,   ordered (and paid for ) the cam belt kit now 3 times,  from 3 different "sellers" only to have it refunded and a message saying they don't have the part in stock for my car?


these three different companies turn out to be the same place..... (confirmed by message)


but of course, while paypal TAKE your money instantly,   they don;t refund it as quickly....    thru the card system,  so i'm out by about £270 till the refunds go thru... 

idiots..


orderpartsby don;t specify the make of the cambelt kit they supply, although they do at least list 2 kits, one before engine number xxxxxx  and another after it....   (mine is the one before )

anyone know if it will be a decent one,??

The information there IS correct, as is what Chris was saying

Use those part numbers to order the next sensor from Vauxhall, not Ebay

Why do people even use ebay? Its full of muppets and crap. They buy the crap from muppets then wonder why what was purchased is crap and call the seller a muppet. The Muppets.

So being the Muppet I am, I might have gone and bought a fake Siemens crank sensor from some muppet on ebay.....

Maybe. You'll never see the core members here recommend buying sensors off ebay.

Was it fitted the oof way, tied up away from the exhaust?
