Just a quick review of Midlands VW in Cannock. Had my timing chain and tensioner changed. Some other garages wouldn't do it without having adjuster done as well but funds and need wouldn't stretch to that. They said it was preferable but they would do it for £350, which was fine. It was sounding like a diesel and had done 120k miles so I thought I would get it changed as a precaution. Took 3 hours and it sounds great now. No diesel noise so very happy.
Cam belt and water pump next...... has been changed twice, with the last being in 2014 at 73k miles so I guess nearly 50k miles later is probably due.
Very knowledgeable guys and travelled 50 miles to get to them. Would do that again definitely. Thumbs up for them.
On a side note - got a previous shape Seat Ibiza 1.0 3cyl 75hp loan car from them. Is this the engine magazines rave about? Awful, sounded like a lawnmower!
