probably, but buy one from Renault Wolverhampton n the traders area, genuine one = 12months warranty Vs part off ebay = f**k all

 

[sam JFM]

Too late now! iv ordered it - how can I tell the ph1 and ph2 kits apart? different sized tensioners?

 

[Fred@BTM]

different idler, but the renault kit fits both, non genuine you HAVE to order the right one

 

[Paprika123]

£70 for non genuine one excluding plugs.

£90 for genuine one including plugs.

Yes yes yes I should have ordered the genuine one! but that still does not answer my question!


Is there and easy way to tell the two idlers apart?


Cheers Sam

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah one won't fit, completley different bolt/spacer

You scrimped over £20 and now have to buy end plugs too?

 

[MKRS]

Right kit and comes with end plugs too, has metal pulleys and supposedly better bearings, same belt, would have bought one for mine if steve wasn't doing the kits so well priced.

I'm sorry but these cheapo companies will never better genuine, not to mention if it snaps on start up you have no come back at all.

Gates make the genuine belt, it's the same bar the small diamonds..

 

[sam JFM]

Oh and can you buy the plastic part of the cam cover? mine has been taken out!

Renault sell them, think they are £12 for both iirc
