Thanks for all the encouragement and the tips. I'm still trying to find a garage that's brave enough to take it on. Guess it may have to be the main agent. There's not many V6 vauxhalls round here as far as I can tell and none of the local garages seem to have the alignment kit and are reluctant to buy it if they only ever use it on my car.

As for your questions well I as far as I can gather from the previous owner the belts were changed within the last couple of years, but I have that sort of feeling the it was just the belts not the tensioners as well, and as I'd originally only bought the car as a stop gap I didn't think anymore of it.

Anyone got any ideas on how much I'd be looking at to spend on new heads if the valves are bent ? Or would a complete replacement engine from a breakers (if i can find one) be a better bet ?

Regards,

Steveo
