Can anyone tell me how long does to take to replace the cambelt,pulley and water pump to a 2.0 .Also what is the cost involved

[rustym95]

Cambelt £20- £40, new water pump £50 - £80 Cambelt & kit £100 - £150, look on ebay may get them cheape, I got cambelt for £20, water pump would just get a new seal, other bits best to be new with a new cam belt, tensions £50 up on ebay. Abou a hour or so depending if u get timiming belt right, as they like to move when putting them on.

the garage i use quoted me 2 hours labour for the job at £30 ph so that's £60 plus parts.He will only use genuine parts

[rustym95]

well i would let him do it then, dont think they will be geuine parts thow, as timing belt kits are £100 just on there own. put some paint on them and see if he realy did do all the work i dun it b4 and found out they never did all the work. cheap yes but bad job.

Used the garage for years and they always offer me the old parts and copies of the sealers invoices and charge me trade plus 10%.They even let me use their equipment if their too busy to do a job.After years of mucking about on engines i have never done a cambelt so wouldn't know where to start

they are easy to do, just need to keep it line'd up, and turn engine by had to make sure its line'd up after, if not bye bye head.
