You will need to specify the model and engine too for this thread to make any sense.

IIRC that's for any VAG transverse engined car (£295 + VAT). and yes, it does include a metal impeller water pump. Check out their website, there's a link from the Awesome section on here.

1999 Octavia 1.9SLX TDi £158.63 for cam belt kit and 'roughly' £150 labour from FH Winter on the IW.

When I asked about the water pump I was told 'We've never had a problem with them, don't even keep one in stock'. Their labour charge is £55/hr. I'll get Andrew at Warren Motors in Lake to do it, £15/hr and can't be faulted.

GSF Car Parts don't do a cam belt kit for an AHF engine - which mine is. I haven't searched the site for info on the different engine models, what is the difference?

Is there any other supplier that has been used by anyone else?

Cheers.
Denis

Called them back as the quote did not include the water pump; they want to charge £75 for adding it.

For a complete toothed belt change (inc. water pump) and the 4y/40.000 miles service, they wanted a total of £715.

Told them to stick it, that another dealer could do this for a cheaper, more realistic price, so they put me on hold for 2 minutes and told me £650 all inc.
