Dayco or gates kits are descent, fit the full kit and do the waterpump at the same time. If funds allow do the oil pump too if the mileage is getting on a bit. Theres plenty of uprated ones about for not much money.

Cars only done 84,000

Priced up a cambelt kit for around £150 for the Gates, my mechanic said he could get a kit for £250 Ouch

Was also going get him do the Crankshaft as its leaking abit of oil from there to

Do you think need water pump at 84k or leave till next cambelt change?

I have done mine this weekend you might as well do the waterpump because if it starts to rumble in the near future you will have to strip it all off again.
