cambelt change

[ed_172_cup]

is it right that you should have the belts changed every 5 years? i have only done 33k miles on a 53 plate so have a way to go untill the 72k mile service....

 

[DrR]

yes thats correct, which ever comes first.

 

[WillC788]

Yes and definitely get it done!

 

[ed_172_cup]

so aux belt at the 36k then leave it another year for the cambelt?

 

[Fletcher]

^^^^I would.

Sicne you've no warnenty to fall back on I'd get it chnaged at 60k or 4 years whatevers earlier 72k and 5 years is about the point they can start to go I know a load have gone just before then and Renault don't payout enough goodwill if anyhting..

Mines going to Rentech on the 1st of june to have it's 72K service and cambelt change, at the moment shes on 70,500 miles

I can't wait it's not been as much fun taking her above 5,000 rpm atm.

mine only done 27k but as its nearly 5 years old i changed it last week

was in pretty good nick to be fair but its french so we all know things dont last

certainly isnt worth the risk
