Hi all,

Regarding Saturday I can help with Pad and Disc change, oil filter change and anything else, BUT I don't know how to do the V6 cambelt change so can't do them. So if someone is willing to do my cambelt change then I can get on with someone else/ your car.

I will be bringing my,
Toll Box
Ramps
Axle stands x2 pairs
Jack
Breaker Bar
Impact wrench
Alloy Wheel Bolt Sockets
V6 locking tool kit (if its turned up by then)
Site Lights (240v)

Paul  :y

P.S I also have a 2.0ltr Cambelt kit as well so if someone needs there's doing but didn't get chance to get one I have one for sale. So if you want to do a swap with me for a V6 thermostat and associated parts then you could have it.

In what way TB?
Should be just a case of removing the caliper and carrier then remove the disc, shouldn't take more than 20 mins each side start to finish.

As a minimum it'll need a fluid change, and possibly a caliper clean.

Ramps could be useful, homemade wine could be nice.  :y

Where exactly is this going on?

I'm a bit miffed that I won't be picking my new car up until the 29th and it is overdue a belt change >:(, but I'd like to drop in during the day (Please don't laugh at the 306 oil burner) and put some faces to names.

I can bring my boiler suit and a pair of willing hands.

Having noticed that TB mine could do with a change and a caliper clean as well. My calipers seem to be in a disgusting state.

I pulled a muscle buggering about with the handbrake about a week and a half ago.  It still hurts.  I'm guessing it will be even worse by Sunday  after I've turned over a few engines a few times :'(
