cam belt on 300 tdi

<< < (3/3)

Tyke:
Cam belt failure is usually terminal for the valve and rocker gear and can also cause extensive damage to the head and pistons.

No excuses for not changing the belt - if goes and you have replacement to hand you can quite rightly call yourself a prat.

Get it done and don't be lazy or you deserve it to fail.

Rest assured it will wreck your top end sooner or later.
