cam belt change

[klm182]

the belts are due on my 182.. had the car nearly 5 years,not sure what was done..so do I get the Cam Belt Change Full Kit(Cam Belt Kit, Dephaser Pulley, Water Pump Kit, Auxiliary belt kit, crank pulley bolt and Cam seals kit. ) for £315 from Renault and get birchdown to fit it?
I know it may be a daft question,do you have change the oil at the same time? so I can order that too? what about the Alternator Belt.?
any advice would be appreciated ..

I haven't long done this on mine, I sure wish I knew a full cambelt change kit existed for £315! You don't need to change the oil but it's probably best with a new dephaser. You may as well get the alternator belt changed too since it will have to come off to do the cambelt and you get a new alternator belt in the cambelt kit. Something to keep in mind if your getting a garage to do the work, they usually like to fit parts that they purchase themselves.

Cambelt all pulleys, alternator all pulleys, new nuts and bolts for cam pulleys, crank bolt, new cam seals for pulley side, new cam caps for locking tool side, order some sealant incase the covers leaking, water pump, coolent, change the oil if you fancy.

Im sure there's more little bits that need remembering.

Make sure birchdown are happy to fit customer supplied parts. But be aware it will usually end up with you having no warranty on it if you do.

It is also advised that an oil and oil filter change be carried out on a new dephaser pulley.

Just get the parts from Birchdown? As said above pretty sure no warranty on customers supplied parts.
