Title: Best Place For Tappets
Post by: WhiteMk2Gti on 31 December 2006, 16:05

Well its time to get em sorted, its getting worse till it warms up (about 10mins) and needs a cam belt change at same time.

So, buy from dealer (the tappets and the belt) or decent store on ebay etc?

Also, what price should i be looking at to get em fitted?
