I can't see it being a problem. You would have to be very unlucky for it to snap. Just get it done as soon as you can

Don't know?
What is a reasonable price to pay for all belts (kits), water pump, dephaser pulley and full service? Have been quoted £770, seems reasonable?
Getting everything changed slightly early as the water pump has started leaking, however, can't get the car booked in until next Wednesday, will it be safe to drive until then?

Did you leave a voice message with a number to get you back on?
I'm terrible at answering my phone but normally very good at retuning phone voice messages.

Hi Mike
I didn't leave a VM the first time I called but I did the second.
I've now booked the car into Boxer Motor Company in Maidenhead for this Tuesday. The quoted me £650 for cambelt kit and fitting.
They are also changing my washer pump, airfilter and spark plugs for about another £200 if I remember correctly
My car sounds terrible so am worried there are other things wrong with it so have also asked them to look at that. It sounds like a diesel!

I'm reading all these cambelt posts and am now kakking myself as I've just bought a 172 ph1 for cheap with no history...
I'm not driving it on the road yet, and was considering doing a DIY job on belts & pulleys (done plenty on other cars) but I ain't gonna risk it now. Thing is I'm skint & it's either a family holiday or a cambelt change, best not tell the missus...!
Anyone know of a reputable place to get it done around northants?

Cool thanks guys i may just give 519 a call.
As i'm not actually using the car yet i may try and track the history a bit as the guy i bought it off (who only had it a few weeks) reckons the previous owner had done the cambelt & dephaser pulley fairly recently, but no theres no proof.
I might write to the previous owner, and also contact renault to see if they have any history on the car. It came from south wales.
If i can safely delay doing the belt just yet and have the family holiday then I'll save a massive rollocking from the missus!

Is there any one in the newport to chepstow area that can change the belt and the rocker cover as my rocker cover has cracked and the belt needs a change..engine is out if that makes it easier ?
Most of my customers come from over there.

Least you know it will be done right if one of them does it for you

5yrs or 72k what ever comes first
Sounds good to me, is that including vat? Ill be in touch and defunatly book that in when i know ill have the time! Cheers mate
Yes all inclusive.
Thinking a head a bit to early next year (the car is on 39k, and it will be 5 years old next year). What about the 1.2 tce 100 (d4ft) engine?
In my mind (I hope anyway) they shouldn't be to bad? There single cam, I'm pretty sure there is no dephaser on them either. I guess you change the waterpump at the same time as is the norm with most stuff. I've done one on a Tu engine, it's just that the engine is a lot more of a tighter fit in the twingo compared to a 106.
