got my cambelt done yesterday, bought the cambelt package then had my mate's mechanic do it for $180. also did the drive belts. i must say the cambelt and all associated parts was still in good shape. so if anyone needs a mechanic to do this let me know happy to point you towards my mate's mechanic

My cambelt was last done at 100,000kms and the car has now done 175,000km. I am gonna do mine in 5,000kms time. Gonna do all the bits and bobs that go with it to make sure everything is in tip top shape

yeah know what you mean, really hard to find a mechanic you can trust he has over 20 years experience so really knows stuff, plus he has experience with our cars so that's reassuring really happy car feels tighter :lol: |
