Hi
I wonder if you knowledgeable guys could help me.
I have a 98 1.8t AGU engine.
Last night the engine overheated and coolant and steam were emitting form the overflow. Having read up on this I am sure the water pump has gone, I need to get the cambelt and thermostat replaced too.
A local garage has quoted me £125 for labour only and £200 if he supplies the parts, labour seems reasonable but the parts seem a tad expensive, so I want to source my own parts and am looking at VW spares site. My question is, in addition to a cambelt kit and waterpump, is it necessary to order a v belt and a cambelt tensioner damper and a v belt tensioner?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
