bloomin how much!!!!

I am in Reading, Berks, for some time.

I can take a look one evening, initial look FOC.

If you need your cambelt etc sorting, my price would be beer money in comparison to that quote. Full info on my website, www.omegamechanic.co.uk :y

If overheating is an easy fix it will be FOC seeing as youre so local :y

I've been quoted £531 to change the cam belt, idlers, tensioners and waterpump. I still have two other quotes I'm waiting on.

I've now seen that the water pump is not driven by the cam belt on the v6. Does this mean that it can be changed without going near to the cambelt?

Can anyone recommend a mechanic near to Sandhurst that could take a look at my car?
