Edition 30 Cambelt costs?
« on: February 25, 2013, 04:25:52 pm »
Hi all recently purchased ED30. On 45k so want to change belt. Had my garage phone vw for Cambelt kit plus water pump. He calls me to say all parts are individual and the cost was mental. Anyone help me out on this never had to buy so much individual parts for one job lol

I got mine from Dave at Sere motors - a SEAT dealer in Northern Ireland. Check this thread out for the details:

I think i paid £170 for everything - all genuine parts, rollers, tensioners, the full lot.

Hope this helps

JKM in Portsmouth could do you a good deal - maybe worth checking out their website or giving them a call?  :happy2:

Any good specialised (such as JKM) sholud be 10-20% cheaper than the VW main dealer so expect to pay £350-£400 inc labour for the Cambelt and Waterpump.

JKM only use OE parts. I think they're labour rates are £55/hour +vat. They're services are fixed price, see here http://www.jkm.org.uk/performance/service.htm

They also have a courtesy car available very cheaply. Currently a new VW Up I think.

PS - wouldn't take my chariot anywhere else.

Gone but not forgotten :-)
