I think Renault sold me the wrong cam pulley!!!

[Jay Payne]

Ive just spent over 230 quid at the dealers buying a cambelt kit and some other bits. im changing my cambelt as looking through the history it was done using a non gen kit at a small local garage. Its also down on power so im hoping its timed slightly out.

I thought id get a phaser pulley while i was at it

Just seen in another thread that Fred posted a pic and the pulley i have been given looks like the exhaust pulley.......

Do i still change this one while im at it as i dont fancy it doing a 'Rollo' on me.

Milage is on the high side too. 103k

Is the phaser pulley likely to be much more expensive ?(this one was £55+)

How common is the phaser pulley for breaking? Do they cause any other problems?

 

[ditz]

the one on the rights the dephaser, id imagine the dephaser would be a hell of alot more

 

[Fred@BTM]

i'll just check

 

[Jay Payne]

I am right in saying they do break/get noisy right?

And Dr Rollo's exhaust pulley failure was RARE

 

[Fred@BTM]

£95+vat for the dephaser

 

[Jay Payne]

Thanks Fred, not too bad, thats what i expected. Was surprised when they said £55

Worth doing?

Went into Renault again today and they were sure they sold me the right one! He said the pulley i wanted wasn't a de-phaser. Went to have a look at the parts screen with him and the picture shows the pulleys from the back, as if u were looking from the flywheel end.


What a stupid way of displaying something!

Got the de-phaser ordered now tho

94+vat but such a good customer now i got a tenner off it. Got the bolts and cover plug too.

Job for monday then
