cambelts are 4 years or 40k without fail!! make sure its the kit and you use the cam locking it, and the tensioners are changed as well as the belt.

welcome to the forum bigh.

cambelt and tensioners should be replaced at 40k miles, if it not done or you have no proof the whole lot has been done then you are advised go get it done asap.
might be worth doing the water pump at the same time as it is in the area and to do it otherwise wil require disturbing the cambelt

As others have said, 40k/4yr on cambelt, and change the kit (belt and tensioners). Easy DIY job - locking tool useful (about £5).  Worth doing waterpump, as its cambelt driven.

For a 4 Pot best thing you can start with is check those Breather pipes to make sure they are clear to stop your rocker cover gaskets leaking, Also have a look at your ICV to make sure its nice and clean Prevention is better than cure :)  :y

Ill have the 4pot cambelt DVD all finished tomorrow for members to buy for 3 or 4 quid and the money goes back into the forum  :y

No. Actually if I'm going to use the vernacular, I should have inserted an apostrophe, so:

'Least I can spell.
