2.2 cam belt renewel
25. Aug 2011 at 19:53

Hi all, was just wondering if i would need a locking tool to do my 2.2 cambelt as it is now 5000km overdue Roll Eyes

and i would like to go to Italy next weekend with piece of mind! also what are generally good kits (from motor factors) or should this be oe only! and just to tear the arse what will i expect to pay for the kit!! thanks for any help you can give me, Rich

the funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it

Hopefully someone else can recommend something
