Need cam chain doing-any recommendations shrops /west mids

[GTi-Andy]

Nice one, you won't regret getting it done.

I know some say it doesn't need doing as it's just noise, but when my old parts came out I was so happy I decided to get it done.

Nice and smooth and quiet now.

Yes looking forward to getting it sorted as the car is spot on apart from that and its embarrassing trying to hold the revs up when I have passengers in just so it doesn't sound like a diesel , just need to address a very slight creaking on the steering , just being picky as nobody else has noticed it lol

[GTi-Andy]

haha, I know what you mean - I used to hate been sat at traffic lights with passengers in the car and all you could hear was the "diesel" sounding engine - now no more

thanks Andy  so this is everything that would need changing right down to the T ? apart from the cambelt side of course.

[GTi-Andy]

This is everything that I ordered and needed them all to sort the chain noise

[muff1991]

that's great, thanks for this, im going to be tackling this job along with cambelt at same time and then work my way towards oil pick up pipe etc... I should then be nearly ready for a remap knowing all the big jobs are done.

I have the tools if anyone wants to borrow them. Lent them to another member the other weeks who's mechanic did not have them.

hi Dazza, what tools are needed for this job? I don't mean normal sockets and stuff but do you need some VW only tools or some special tools not many people have or something? thanks.

[dazza]

You will need T40080 for the cam adjustor bolt.

And T10252 cam locking tool.

[muff1991]

great, Thanks very much Dazza.. I will invest in these two
