EdMorris Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Relative newbie here. Wanted to know if anyone can recommend a specialist around Berks/south east area to carry out a cambelt change and once over. Just picked the car up last week and want to find a decent garage to do all my servicing. Local Toyota quoted me £270 plus parts for the cambelt. Is that good? Cheers, Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belly Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 hi ed, had the timing belt, aux. belt and tensioner changed on my n/a at AMJ Auto Services in Hungerford, don't know if this is close enough for you. the price was around the £200 mark. the number is 01488 686611 and ask for Gavin. hope this helps. ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 For cambelt Toyota should be okay, but I wouldn;t let them do any other work on the car! Pheonix in Watford are highly recommended but you way have to wait a week or two to get it booked in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdMorris Posted March 12, 2006 Author Share Posted March 12, 2006 Thanks for the advice. I might go with Toyota for the cambelt and then try the Watford chap for a proper tickle with the spanners. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnK Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I wouldnt take it anywhere near basingstoke to get it done. Phoenix do have a good rep, its worth traveling to get someone you can trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
