my brake reservoir cap has melted on the the reservoir, this normal? still got the heat shield on the bulkhead and standard 182 manifold...

hi all just wondering what the torque settings for the cam pulleys are because my friend had his cam belt done at ktech and the timing has jumped because the ex pulley has spun round? must have been quite loose to spin round right?

3 1/2 hours but I'm a fully trained mechanic so knew what I was doing really and had a ramp and all the proper tools to hand. Hardest bit was getting off the lower cambelt cover..and putting it back on.

My boss has bought the tool off me after seeing how useful it was sorry guys.

Hi guys so was at te garage till 10 last night fitting all those bits. Yes those are trade prices by the way. Went well with the tool very easy to do actually.

water pump is on the aux belt not the cambelt and very rare to go on the 182. yea my garage has the horse shoe and tdc pin but didnt have the cam locking tool so i needed to buy that for it, still cheaper than getting ktech to do it for 600 inc dephaser pulley. might even keep the tool and...

thank you :D im a mechanic so should all go swimingly, also the locking tool will be for sale after tomorrow ;) boss doesnt want to buy it off me

so ive spent a whole total of £368.14 on the following: cambelt kit aux belt kit dephaser pulley and the genuine cam locking tool (with adaptor for 182) also got to fit: front brembo hc discs front ferodo ds2500 pads rear discs and pads.... got to start this at 5:30 after work...

whats 2 years these days anyway.....:o

good good may give it a go with out the tool lolif it doesnt work i will be walking home lol also car is a 2005 182 with 52k on the clock too early for change?

but surely if new belt is fitted and cam sprockets are tourqed correctly and the crank pin and horseshoe fits in easily its timed up correctly? doesnt matter where the pulleys face cause there free wheeling right? as long as the horse shoe and crank are inserted easily its ok? tell me if im...

we've got the horse shoe and crank pins but not the cam holding tools, the front tool is only to hold the cams whislt undoing/tightening up the cams right? if so surely can be dont with out ;)

im a full time mechanic have been for 4 years and done sooo many cambelts, but really not sure with these depahser pulleys, only ever done one on a megane 1.6 and it went fine, but we dont have the front locking tool for the engine so might just send it to ktech :S or could have a go and save...
