Make sure they do the pulleys! Just had the parents focus engine explode! They reckon when the cambelt was done the pulleys weren;t changed / changed for cheapo russian ones. Camshafts in 4 pieces!

thanks for the replies... they're doing everything... also having the aux belt and tensioners/pulleys on that done too.. made sure it was a decent cambelt kit too

it needs to be done asap as it wasn't sounding healthy... plus i'm not lying under a car in this sh!te weather

I think thats a very cheap price if it includes the full timing kit and a service.

Ask the bottom pulley bolt to be replaced by a genuine item...
Gates ones arent great... can come undone...

Mates rates?

[Guy]

Mates rates?

yeah... £350 all in.. plus fitting a new headlight bulb and fixing the cig lighter for the sat nav

the only thing the lazy git didn't do was replace the indicator stalk as the indicators don't cancel out after going around a bend.. this means I still have to lift my fingers up after going around a corner to cancel out the indicator... you just can't get the staff these days!
