My new cam belt let go tonight after less than 700 miles. To say I'm upset is an understatement. Not so cheap crap from a major online land rover specialist. Boo hiss.

hrh_dave:
Ohhh pooo! Who fiitted it.. any come back that way? What make of belt make was it?


Dave...

Living it up in the south of france...

lambert:
It was a joint effort by me and my mot man, seems the newness of it all was too much for the crank oil seal which allowed the belt to slip which promptly lunches the belt and the crank pulley and 5 push rods. Boo hiss.

That is it seems the last straw for my old man's patience with it, so I'm fixing it mot and gone. Possible replacements he has been looking at are Suzuki gv of diahatsu I think terrios, though whether I get his jimny or mothers terrios or sommat new remains to be seen.

hrh_dave:
OOPS...

LandRoger:

The vehicles you mention are never going to replace a 90 if you use it for any kind of serious work! i currently drive a GV and really like it but it wouldnt last long as a worker reckon your in the market for a twin cab pickup of some sort, thats what i replaced my 90 with an Mitsi L200 damned heavy on the derv though , :sad:
