Title: Newbie in nottingham
Post by Mr_P on 28. Oct 2007 at 01:45

A-up!
Just got me first Omega, Mrs P was taken by the heated seats ::). 2Ltr CD auto Estate on an R plate 74K miles. I reckon it must soon be due for a cam belt and perhaps water pump change so will be looking for a reasonable place to take it to if any one knows Notts or somewhere close-ish :question

Hallo, and welcome to the forum :)

Good choice of car - and good call in getting the cambelt done. Peice of mind :)

If you are mechanically happy to have a go, then it's something you can do yourself. Locking tool is about a fiver. There are also a few experienced members in or around the Nottingham area who may be able to help (don't quote me on that).

As with everyone, I would encourage you to have a go yourself, as it's really not a bad job.

However, If you prefer to have someone else do it, then I offer a very competitive cambelt changing service.

Come to me, (Cheltenham) and it would be £170 inc parts, or £250 inc parts if I came to you. :y

The parts themself, buying from autovaux, come to just under £100+vat - trade club is marginely cheaper than that too.

Welcome to the site :)

The 2.0l/2.2l cambelt change is very easy. Worth giving it a go, and if you get stuck, plenty of knowledgable people on here to give advice, and certainly no shortage of experts in Nottingham if you get really stuck!
