BUT!! I only need the wheel as the bearings have gone. Everywhere I look it's the ...

Sounds like it needs a new MAF.

My 130bhp Sport would never rev above 4k and was down on power and then I changed the MAF went like stink

Went to see a friend of mine (Grinder) this morning to try and add another remote to my 2001 Passat. Although both of them will start the car only one will lock and unlock the car.

Followed this guide below from Ross-Tech but when we tell the car to allow 2 remotes it will only let us have one ...

Costco do some Goodyear ones at around

Will do mate. He's been a busy boy for me just lately. Cambelt 2 weeks ago and now fun and games with Vag-com

Cheers Dave thought that might be the case.

I think i know a man who can........ calling Grinder ;)

I've just tried to use my other key to unlock the car (2001 Sport) but it doesn't work. The red light on the fob flashes but nothing happens with the locks. It still starts the car but doesn't work the doors.

The manual says I need to unlock the car with the key using the drivers door lock and ...

Cheers Chris. She's on 122k so might need one.

As you might have seen I've had an offer from Grinder who's only 20 mins from me.

With your trade contacts can you do a parts supply/post only?

Cambelt Kit
Damper :evil:
Aux and AC Belts
Waterpump
I'll get the coolant as it will be heavy come ...

My 2001 130bhp TDi Sport is having it's cambelt changed next month but as of today I've just discovered this 'Cambelt Damper' that isn't part of the kit.

It's on 120k and at the moment I'm ready to buy and then fit:

VW Cambelt Kit
KWP Waterpump
Contitech Aux and AC belts
G12 Coolant.

Who's ...

Hi,

Paul

Sounds good to me. Any idea when?

I guess you've done one or two before??

How much would you want as I do intend to help and not ...

I've sent him a text like he asked with my reg and he was online earlier this evening.

Never mind. Perhaps Derby - North London was a daft idea anyway

Big let down so far mate


Cash waiting anyone eles??

All gone a bit quite North London way????

Did you get my reg number by text Chris??

Went online myself and all the parts came to 127 quid, so not bad

Cambelt kit
Water Pump
Aux Belt
A/C Belt
G12 Coolant x 5litres

Whats your part prices??

Sorry Chris thought you were an adam looking at your user name

reg number on it's way.

Cheers Adam.

Just cuz your in North London it still might be a lot cheaper than a local garage. I'll price all the parts up, add perhaps 20 quid of fuel and see what your 100 notes takes it up to.

be in touch soon. ;)

I know my way around a car but when it comes to my first cambelt I'd like some help. I'd rather learn and see this done than hand it over to a garage and see nothing.

So if you fancy having me and my 2001 130bhp TDi Sport on your drive at a weekend then I'll supply the parts (inc waterpump and ...

I know I'm not in France but last week I bought 5 litres of Quantum PD oil from Parkway VW in Derby for

When I first joined this forum last year I thought I'd read someone on here offered a mobile Cambelt Changeing Service.

Is this still running and who was it??

If not I need a specialist in the Derby/Nottingham area please. I do all my own servicing so this is the first time it's needed to visit a ...

how much did john quote you can you remember

About the same as you I think around the £330 mark.

I think I know where Somercotes is??? I'm a Duffield man myself.

This is also my first time sending the Passat to a garage as I also do my own servicing and repairs. Cambelts are a little bit above me on this car. I don't want to find myself stuck on the drive without a cambelt and without the ...

hi all im new to the site, not sure about the petrol engines but i have the 130 pd engine and have recently changed the timing belt and water pump myself, at a cost of just a shade over £100 and around 3 1/2 hours of my own time on a sunday afternoon, hardest bit is removing the front end, (rad ...

I could of helped you out if you were a bit closer. I normally charge £150 + beltkit, But if anyone on here wants one doing in the Yorkshire area il do it for £100 + the belt kit (which will be discounted as i work in a main dealer ;) ). I also have use of a vas 5052 diagnostic machine on ...

you are same as me digidick mines going to a specialist next week for the same thing im taking it to a
place in somercotes near alfreton if you know where that is, he said £330 if i remember

this is the first time my cars been anywhere for any work as i do all my own, i just dont get the time ...

I looked at that Audi dealer on ebay but when I phoned to ask them how much extra for the water pump as well they quoted an extra £70 for the pump and then a couple of hours extra labour.

If you can make it to Gloucester I got mine done my a mechanic I have used regularly:

Cambelt Kit
Water Pump ...
