Hello again

Forgot to ask if anyone has any tips or know of any upgrade parts for the cambelt tensioner -understand this is a potential weak point, gonna get my local garage to do it but thought i'd ask before ordering parts from German & Swedish.
Cheers
Simon

Hi. Just got my cambelt done about two weeks ago. Your uncle is probably right. Quality from VW is much better. I also got me powersteering belt done at the same time and my water pump. Wasn't too expensive though as my uncle done it :lol: .
