DIY Servicing

[Andy_S]

Ok saxo nerds im in need of some advice..

My car hasn't been serviced for quite some time mainly due to lack of funds, but i feel that i should get it done sooner rather than later, anyway, i usually do this myself but in the past have only bought cheap parts, oils etc.

So does anybody have any recommendations for the list below:
Possibly include best place to buy from if you can remember.

Engine oil
Gear box oil
Air filter (I only use a standard filter box)
Cam belt
Brake pads
Spark plugs
Oil Filter
Fuel Filter

All to fit a 2001 saxo VTS.

Cheers

How many miles is the car on?
As is it worth doing a cam belt change at this moment.
All the others are easy DIY jobs!

Try eurocarparts or GSF(german sweedish & french) for the parts!

All the jobs listed are pretty easy mate, except for the Cambel.
MAybe do all the jobs except fpr the cambelt, buy the parts for the cambelts change and take it to a garage, aslong as its not a citroen dealer as they will charge you a heck of alot.

And search for sutton auto factors in long eaton and say you are ordering parts for me at toyota (pride park) and they will give you trade :)

depends what you use the car for. If you took it to a garage they would just fit all they standard parts unles you asked other wise.

Depending on how hard you drive your car would depend on what oil i would advise "always good to have good oil anyway"

air filter you can get a k&n to fit inside the airbox, but you might as well stay standard.

plugs, bosch do a new super 4 they are preety good use them atm, ngk also do a good plug.

fuel filter halfords :P

brakes again depenpening on how hard you drive, halfords can order these in or might stock them but there expensive, your better of going down an industrail estate and geting them near trade.
