Title: Saying hello
Post by paulmcclung on 11. Mar 2008 at 21:30

Just thought I would pop in and say hello and ask a quick :question

Just bought a 99 2.5 v6 gl auto. Loving it so far seems to run well.

This however has no marked up service since 40k and I dont know if the belt has ever been done so I will have replace that as a precaution as the car is now just off 80k.

What else would I be wise to check out :question

"Hello" and welcome :)

Ask your questions in "General Chat" .. more folks read there than here !!! :) especially the experts and there are quite a few !!

Also .... stick your car details and location in your profile .... saves being asked a zillion times !!

welcome paul :y........cambelt/tensioners every 40k or 4 years whichever comes first.oil and filter about 3k (opinions seem to vary a bit) crankcase breather system i think once a year,this is very important.any other stuff ask in help section you may well get more expert and detailed advice.

Welcome aboard Paul. Change the whole cambelt kit every 40,000mls or 4 yrs WITHOUT FAIL...if in doubt do it. Glad i did. Oil/filter every 3 to 4000 miles. Not the cheapest motor to run but if you look after it it'll look after you & clock up inter galactic miles. :y
