Broken Cambely Question ~ Astra G 03 1.6 16V

(1/3) > >>

zirk:
Astra G 03 1.6 16v, not sure which engine type yet, but question is if the Cambelts snaped, will it be damaged Vaives, or near miss.?

Assuming its a Belt and not Chain?

Ta.

Yes, my ex-wife got the cambelt changed on her 2002 1.6 Astra by somebody she knew and it was a new head job from where it let go. :o Of course the £50 she saved on the service and cambelt meant she was only about £950 out of pocket. :-[ :-[ :-[
