cheers guys. if it comes with only 1 idler is that ok to reuse an idler? or should it defo come with two idlers?

2 idlers plus the tensioner. :y

It is the bearings in the idlers that fail first, so these must be replaced.

Stick to one of the brands I mentioned and the kit will be complete.

This is what you should have :

2 idlers
tensioner
backplate
belt
spacer for the lower idler
mounting bolts

Hi guys,

Sorry to be a pain as I know this is a question I should know the answer to but a little while ago someone posted up a website where you can put your reg number in and pick a kit.

Mine's due end of August and having a get together with the N.O.O.F branch at symes's and need to get my kit.

could someone post a link? :)

cheers

ps, im not going to replace water pump.... so am I right in thinking that I need belt, tensioner, backing plate and two idlers and that's it? :)

 :o :o

thanks guys. ill prob give buypartsby a call to clarify as don't want to order and then have one missing idler  ::)

steve, I think the consensus was that back in the day when pumps were in the £20 bracket it made sense. I think theyre stupid price now though. and as its not cam belt driven im not too worried  :)

IMHO, it's not worth replacing the water pump on a V6. They have been of poor quality recently, so the one that's in it will probably be better.
