KV6 Belt change parts

jn12 · 27th October 2010, 22:00

Hello,

sorry as no doubt this has been asked a thousand times but a search has not turned anything i need up.

Just in the processing of getting the parts together for the dreaded belt change on my new V6 ZT. Getting all genuine parts and have got the following -

3 belts
Tension pulley
Idler pullley
Tensioner
Water pump

can not find on rimmers the oil caps and pulley bolts. Anyone got any part numbers?

Cheers
John

p.s have i missed anything? Anyone in the North East who can do them apart from the ex rover dealer?

once you have the seals and the bolts and the parts you;ve already listed above its time to open your bonnet and get stuck in as you shouldn/t need anything else goodluck

Well the Rover garage want £370ish this includes the labour and the cost of a genuine rover aux belt. Does this seem right?

Who did your belts biglek?

Cheers

a friend of my brother is in the durham mg club and told him about a bloke in chester-le-street who they use, i got all the bits he charged me £300 for doing the job i can dig out his number if you want it, as my car is back there this week to get the thermo-stat done,
