Hi Guys
Does anyone know the cheapest place in the Southampton area that can do a cam belt change for my 06 2.7 RRS. I would do it myself but the tools are £100 to start with

Cheers guys

Not quite Southampton, but have the locking tools required. Not far from Longleat. 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!
Now rolling in MY10 Fullfat TDV8 Vogue. Slammed it to go round corners🙈
Cruising daily #56 mph in a Volvo V8. 😱
Lots of other toys in the cupboard...😜

Thanks for the offer simple1
I don't really like using other people's tools in case I damage/break them
Thanks anyway

Have to be doing something fairly daft to break these
Two cam pins and flywheel lock. Two hours to do front belts on D3, and the same to do pain in backside rear pump belt  2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

the pins are pretty std, as Simple says, the only way realy of breaking these, is to try starting the engine with them in

sets are £65 on ebay if you want your own.

LR wil charge anywhere between 600-900, indipendants will be charging abouit £500, so you can save yourself a packet if you are able to change them yourself.  Bodsys Brake Bible

I may do it myself when I get 10 mins.
Is it best to change the tensioner as well, or are these normally ok

Always change the metalwork.

i can fix you up with OE Dayco parts and lend you the tools. Paul Redding

id always change the tensioner (should get one with the timing belt kit) as well as idler bearings and also consider changing the water pump as is very simple with the belt off.  Bodsys Brake Bible

Wouldn't bother changing belts without tensioners and water pump. If the belts are due changed then the pump has done @ 100k miles so for five more bolts and some sealant just plain daft to forget it.

A must is both the belts two tensioners and bolts, both idelers, auxullary belt and tensioner, optional is the water pump, I have done dozens of belts and only changed two water pumps at the customers request as both pumps where fine when replaced its your call to replace it.

From 2007 on its a must to change the oil pump as well as quite a few of this year have had failed front belt tensioners due to the oil pump casing failing and trashing the engine.

Flack

How much for the front and rear kit?
