    Heres why you should have your cambelt done PROPERLY!

    The garage probably did use the timing tools... but on the crank webb there are holes drilled for balancing, its very easy to lock the bottom end in these holes instead of the TDC hole! something to be carefull of

    Cambelt change but not tensioners.

    Cambelt kit £150, aux kit £100, cam plugs bout £30 ish all plus vat. Then probably anything between 3 - 5 hours labour depending on where you take it.

    Cambelt change but not tensioners.

    No need to get touchy mate.. the point is a garage should no better than to change a belt without doin the tensioner. Wether they are cost cutting or not its still not right is it?

    Cambelt change but not tensioners.

    Tensioners fail more than the belts tbh the bearing explodes, then its game over. Why would you not change the tensioner and idlers?? Thats just silly

    ktecs new Throttle bodys

    There a lot noisier, but its a good noise not a chavvy drain pipe exhaust drone. More of a bark noise but once youve heard em it makes you want em!

    What suspension next?

    Couldnt justify paying someone £250 quid to set them up. The ride height is spot on all round so that cant be the problem, -1 degree negative front camber and iv tried multiple damper settings. Surely theres not much more a specialist could do apart from corner weighting etc, but even that...

    What suspension next?

    Im a renault tech so was confident i could tackle the job. I fitted them, did a few miles in them, then i adjusted the ride height all round ( its approx 30 - 40mm lower than standard) adjusted front camber to -1 degree. Ive also played with the damper settings, but not happy with it. Its just a...

    Which coilovers for road usage???

    I bought gaz coilovers.. big mistake! bumpy, undriveable and twichy, cup suspension down a country road would easily beat it. Looks like most people rate H+R's.. duno wether to go back to cup dampers and sportlines. If ya gonna get coilovers, save a bit longer and get H+R....Otherwis you'l...

    un-even wear on fronts?

    yea sounds like tracking and possibly camber at fault. Start with a wheel alignment check and adjust (£20 -£30)
