Hopefully they have fitted it correctly. I have seen so many threads where fault codes have appeared after cambelt was fitted incorrectly. Usually it turns out the belt was put on one tooth out of position.
Good luck hope you get it sorted.

maybe it is, but them actually fixing it rather than just resetting the warning light is questionable

If they reset it the codes will come back straight away. If they reset it and they disapear you know the belt is fine  :drinking:

Summits not wright here.....
After fitting a cambelt/service or any running gear parts a full road test must be carried out as per HSA standards, they would of road tested your car, my guess is a faults registerd after it's been r/t
Didn't a service advisor bring the car around?
