How many miles until your cambelt KIT is due?
« on: 21 November 2007, 08:40:59 »
Just asking out of interest really, following my recent scare!

Please note I'm not touting for business (I cannot take anymore on this year)...  But I'm interested in the results of this poll.

Obviously, it only applies to petrol models!

The 2.2 is due within a couple of thou (so NOW)
the 3.0 has about a year left.....but I'm twitchy, Aux belt sometimes squeaky, so think the whole lot can be done sooner rather than later.

For a small forum, there have been too many failures, I don't want to be next.

You need to add years, as some do moderate mileages.

Mine - 3 years - 25K miles
Hers - 2 years 25K miles.

The secret is in the fitting, to much tension on the belt and you get premature failure....
