Cambelt Kit...
- Thread starter Carlv8415

So it should be everything just not the dephaser ?
A cam belt kit is just the belt and rollers, then you have the aux belt kit and dephaser pulley which will cost extra.
Aux belt kit is around £75 from Renault and the dephaser is £150 ish
Renault do state that when replacing the cam belt kit the aux belt kit should also be replaced.
The dephaser pulley depends on how old it is and i have heard it should be replaced on its 2nd cam belt change.
Yeah receipts would be a good thing tbh.

That won't include the dephaser as these are £175 alone from Renault.
Depends how old the car is ? Mines on 80k and its 3rd belt setup
It would be good to see the receipt if I was you to check what was replaced , aux belt kit would be a must ,

From Renault yes, but you can get genuine ones elsewhere for cheaper. eBay and here: http://www.eurocarcare.net/tensioners-pulleys/8200782671.html
Cambelt kit again.
Yh I just feel better knowing it has been done and don't get slammed with a bill later on because it needs to be done
I did my cam belt 3 years ago, it was the 2nd time the belt had been replaced and i didnt replace the dephaser.
The car had only done 39k though, its now on 47,500 and its still fine.
If i was to do it again (as im thinking about cams) i will deffo be replacing it though.

I would just get the aux kit supplied and fitted safe , but if u want to do the dephaser and new belt done its a big bill not much change I would think between £500-£600
That why I had the 438s fitted when I had the cam & aux belts kits fitted but now had the a/c delete done.
£75 for the kit and id say maybe around 2 hrs labour.
i don't know where your are from mate but see if there's a someone near you in the traders section that could supply and fit
Cambelt hasn't been changed?

87k on original cambelt....your extremely lucky so far. Ticking time bomb
RE54 LJF avoid.

Defo ticking time bomb,I changed my cambelt dephaser cam seals and auxbelt kit at 59,000 just for piece of mind, I wouldn't drive the car If it was on 87k with aux and cambelt not changed 99% of the time if the aux belt goes will take cambelt with it. bit risky as auxilary belt service should be done at 32k.
Very rarely go wrong and they are Aux belt driven not cam.
I offer to change the water pump at no extra labour cost when doing cambelt and aux kit, just explain its £50 now or should it fail it's £200 kind of job. I've had a few where the water pump is starting to feel rough now.

Change the dealer you use as the are charging you nearly £45 too much
Bargain!! Can see why you get good recommendations on here Dan.
