Hi
new to this, can anybody tell me the price I should expect to pay for a
cam belt change on a 300 tdi defender from a non-franchise LR specialist?

Defender 90 CSW 300tdi
2 inch lift
snorkel
scorpion bumper
33x12.50x15

Pieter Vroom

Hi,

I paid £120 2 years ago (this was on a 200Tdi).

Whats the trick anyway ? Just a big enough spanner to get the crank
pulley off ?

Don't get the belt out of alignment and take care torquing up the bolts for
the cover, apparently wrong torque factors cause many of the stripped belts.

We charge £150 inc parts and VAT
If you need the pully upgrade it cost's another £50ish for parts.

I was told (by a garage) that you are supposed to replace all the
pulleys...etc. They said the kit for this was about £300 to purchase
and there would be labour on top of that.

Now, I know these people well, so I doubt they were trying to scare
me into parting with the cash.

Is there any truth in this?

Its a possibility it MIGHT need new tensioner pulleys, but that should
be down to the mechanic to decide - certainly in the 200Tdi rebuild I am
doing, the 120,000 mile engine I have is getting its old tensioners
back - there is no sign of wear.

If someone else were paying, hell I'd change the lot....

On the original recall sheet I belive they also suggested that you change
the front cover housing ect. But in practise we have never had to and there
has not been a problem in doing it this way.
