Hello All!

I want to get the Cambelt changed on my WRX MY96 and have found somebody to do it for me! (Subaru Mechanic), he has advised me to change the tensioner at the same time and has found out the price of one for me from Subaru, £188+vat!!!Does anybody know where I can get one from for a "reasonable" price? Thanks in advance for any replies.


Len.

The early tensioners dont seem to give bother. The new lever style one, from about 98 on, do give bother.
