Hi


You'll be wanting the Cam Belt DVD.  It's a must and will save even the most experienced mechanic some time.  Can be bought from the OOF shop.

Just done it myself and I'm a real novice. I've the locking kit if you want to borrow it. You'll have to arrange hermes or the like to pick it up and return it and leave a deposit. 3.2 has less dismantling than shown in the DVD and there is no adjustment on the lower roller. Make sure you have a 30mm swan neck ring spanner.
