Its not the same thing but, a light smear will do just as good a job.

Tunnie, do I need to put me easy outs and tap kit in the car as well for this 'damaged' stud of yours....


Ohh yes please  :)

Forgot about that stuff.... the is minimum thread showing I can see it being a bastard to get out!

I can strip the belt cover down in the morning before 9ish.... perhaps on your way though to Jaime's you could stop by for 2 mins and see what you think?

I just want to check I've got everything I need if poss - this will be un-technical, so bare with me..

Cam belt change - timing kit includes belt, what i assume is the tensioner (metal thing with 2 wheels on it) bag of bolts, additional wheel thing

Aux belt - just the belt

Water Pump - just the pump

Antifreeze (5L)
you should have an 'O' ring with the water pump ... Vx P/N 90354908 (pump should be Vx P/N 90543277)

also silicone grease to spray on the pump to block mating surface - but I'm bringing a spray can of that ... well "white lithium grease" which I think is the same thing?

Got my housemate to check, its there, we're all set  :y

I think you might need more than a bit of grease to catch a Klingon ::)

Ok, just been informed I can't leave till about 8:15am, hopefully the roads will be clear Tunnie and I can get to yours ASAP

You'll be pleased to know I've been "relieved" of being on call though, so there's almost nil chance I would have to leave early.....
