Have you got the V6 timing kit/tools to the the 2.5 and 3.0 engines James.?

What about ones for the 2.6 and 3.2 as well

Same kit, just slightly different process.

[JamesV6CDX]

Yep, I have the kit for all V6 engines. Not the cheapo one either. This is one area where you don't cut corners!

How do you fancy a trip up to Rotherham in about a months time Jame's.  If you do then please PM your phone number and I will happily give you a ring and have a chat.  

[Darth Loo-knee]

Personally I think you should PM JamesV6CDX. He is very happy to do this work for members and his rates are excellent.

YOU WILL NOT HAVE A BETTER JOB DONE EITHER.

Mark DTM is still the Master  

Master of what, that's the question  

Plus, Daz, I remember you posting saying you were gonna give him a run for his money. I take it that, seeing as you still call him master, this means you failed?  

This is your youth letting you down James

You and the rest of us are all apprentices compared to "The Master" we may not like it but a truth you need to swallow.....

Anyway I beat him at Timbuks  didn't we Captain

I fail to see the problem - a cambelt change is a relatively simple procedure?  :-/

What would Mark do differently/better on a cambelt change that someone else who has done several wouldn't?

Hi , Had a lovely day phoning local garages for quote on a 3.0v6 belt and tensioner change, you would have thought I was asking for one of their kidneys by their reaction, and they all seem terrified of the job, why? None bar the main dealer would touch it.

I have a good guy who would do it but doesn't have the locking kit for a 3.0 but does for the 2.5, Im curious if these would be actually the same kit? I would rather get a second hand kit or hire one than pay £450 to vauxhall. Any suggestions. Im pretty handy but havent done a belt and dont fancy starting with a v6.Cheers Jon

How far is Wigan from your bit of Scouse land? I have a locking kit you're welcome to borrow. I work at Kitt Green if you want to journey into pie eating country.  

Not too far TBH and appreciate your offer, I might take you up on that. Any good pie shops in the locality?

The last belt kit went on 35,000 ago so hopefully I dont need to sweat for a couple of thousand miles :-/

..... Any good pie shops in the locality?  ......

Probably, but I'm from Black Pudding country! I could sort you some beanz out for the pie though if you want!

I never actually said that it wasn't.... but there seems to be a few on here who think you are the Man as it were..... I am not saying your not good, but I have not come across anyone so knowledgeable as MarkDTM that is a fact

Maybe so, but I'm still struggling to see the relevence of this, in a help thread  :-/

This thread goes more and more off-topic with every post!

The OP was looking for a service, and a couple of members recommended one - aside of that I think all of the irrelivent posts need weeding out, if this is to make any sense.
