Can anyone list me the parts required for a major service on a 1999 uk turbo or let me no what ive forgot?

Fuel filter £12.00
Oil filter and sump plug washer £4.99
Plugs £9.99 (each)
Front pads £32.00 (Needed)
Cambelt £47.00 (optional)
Diff oil ? ? ? ? ?
Engine Oil ? ? ? ? ?
Gear box oil ? ? ? ? ?

These prices are from "camskill" who i have been told are cheap. The plugs seeem very dear at £40 and im not sure what oils are needed for the above things. ( Rating and amount).

Thanx

Looks mostly right.

Diff and Gearbox oil should be 75W/90 something like Castrol Syntrax will suffice.

Oil depends on your driving style. Minimum spec is semi-synthetic 10w40. Use a 10w-50 15w-50 if your a hard driver. You can put synthetic in, but don't ask too many question as it'll spark yet another 10page oil debate (use search )

And yes your paying too much for those spark plugs...try ringing up your local partco autoparts (unipart)branch: partco autoparts in UNITED KINGDOM » Yell.com

They should do Geniune NGKs for cheaper (the RRP is miles more than trade price - almost 100% mark up)

You should set aside some cash fincase you need new cambelt idlers and tensioner (2 idlers at about £60 and one tensioner £100). You may find the bearings in them have dried up and become noisy when you spin them.

Would an engine with 50k on it really require this work with the cam belt or will the parts more likely to have done 120k (original engine)!
