Had to do the cambelt on my new daily*, and it's only done 37k 8O
Mind you the cambelt was 12years old

Hope its not a GDI one.....

Why do you say that?

I hate Wingroad's and the company my GF works for has had tonnes of issues with them (brand new lease cars). Actually trying to talk a family member out of buying one.

Normal belts are fine.. This one did about 5000km of racing before I realised I'd screwed the pulley remover bolts in too far and damaged the belt. Ran fine however, no cracks or anything else was visible :oops:
