New Tensioner, and new belt. Thats it. He should supply those though if hes a garage/mechanic?

Yea i suppose, was thinking might be cheaper if i gave them to him ha.... My Head Gasket just went and thats in getting done now so im better off playing it safe and getting the timing belt done over the new few weeks.

Thanks :)
Yeah you might wanna replacethe water pump at the same time since it's all being done, might aswell for a few exta quid. I had my belt, tensioners and pump done at the same time, that should be all you need

is it an expensive job on a saxo

no unless vts.

it won't be any cheaper if you supply the parts cause you'll get charged retail at the parts shop and you will at the garage anyways unless you get discount
