Could be better than yours! You might not like it but I'll leave you to it

[YZ250]

The irony is, with the exception of offers of help from AndyB, AndyC & HenryD (that's spooky), after four pages we still haven't answered the OP's question  , which was 'But Does Anybody On Here Do Cambelt Changes Near St.Austell Cornwall Please'. The poor OP is still waiting for an answer, but at least he's in no doubt as to what mileage to change it at.

I've wound you all up, but did't mean to swear by my life, sorry. I don't fit cambelts either, only my own.

I've just re-read all this thread.

Allen25 was not the original poster but answered the OP with his 8/80k comment.

Which is wrong.

He (Allen25) then continued to defend his comment much to the chagrin of the experience and knowledge of VX dealer shedules on here.

Allen25 eventually realised that he better 'fess up that he was playing with the membership and had made an error in doing so.

Fair play for the admission.   

Lets leave it there then and stop continuing with the spanking when he has already said 'enough'?

ta.....

[the alarming man]

you know what they say ken...never argue with an idiot...as they will always beat you with experience but for the record pomfreys out in teynham claim it 4 years/40,000 for cambelt replacement it in great big 10 inch letter on a sign advertising the fact....some people just can't be helpped

[allen25]

I do have the kit and it is not near, but it is here in Worcestershire. Thanks for the saviour I don't know how it's exploded like this but I will definately take it up with Vauxhall. If I get a reply you will be informed. Phew!

  uum well five pages of when cam belt should be done and i allready know as i worked for wards vauxhall for nine years and find this quite funny thanks guys for the soaps it was good fun me and wife read every comment from start some heated at that lol.

well again the point being that yes it used to be untill the update to vauxhall manufacturing warrentys started flawing due to so many tensioner (not belts) failed before the stated dates of 80.000 but due to so many failed tensioners it was confirmed to ALL genuine vauxhall dealers that all advice for 16v and 24v engines and priorty to V6 engines must be serviced at 40.000 or 4yrs if car has been well maintained to vauxhalls advice in service intervals.

thankyou to the people that know on here i wont name any members but i can tell a lot of you have the knowledge and some dont and a limited few wish to make pointless defence with lack of knowledge in motor industry but when it came down to the point the addmin was right the question was not  "when" as i know what the intervals are...and its a job that be done...however i whould do myself but i have kidney stones and prostate problems at moment and want somebody asap in or near cornwall to do the job for me i have the belt kit so just a skilled body that knows exactly what there doing as i can do it myself if was able in 45mins many thanks to you guys in the know but the whole topic went south and five pages later no help as such....mike

[dbug]

Hope you get someone experienced to do your cambelt & tensioners mate - cannot believe it took 5 pages to change the "experience" of an inexperienced newbie who wouldn't let go!!   FFS

[cem_devecioglu]

    I love this forum to bits 

[feeutfo]

Max, we(Mrs G and I) are doing a charity walk accross the Seven bridge on Sunday for CF. If your ok with it, and theres enough mileage left on the srvice interval, meet me In the south car park and I'll do your cam belt there.
 Forecast for the morning is horrific though.  .  Which is absolutely bloody typical.
Afternoon "should" be ok though.

If I do the work, and your happy, all I ask is a suitable contribution of your choice to the charity. How's that?

Failing that, AndyB's offer sounds too good to miss.

Poor bloke it was like a lamb to the slaughter, spanners at dawn  you bullies now about the cambelt
