Possibly timing belt tensioner pulley on its way out. When was the cambelt last done?

...on then was told that it broke down between the garage and dealership after having the cam belt replaced. I was told by the salesman that the cambelt pulley had failed and advice from this forum was that this could have caused damage to various components in the engine so it did not look...

Hold off on that one pal. Have a search on the site for the cambelt thread. You no longer need to do it based on age, its based on mileage (125k from memory) Oh, and welcome along!

Regarding the cambelt, my 21 Tig 200 TDi is in for a recall today. I've just had the video of the tyres being measured and told that everything is OK. On the email there was a list of things to do now or in the future it says "Cambelt Change due at 140k" No mention of age tho'.

Still for sale and just had a full service and cambelt done! Ready to drive and enjoy this summer!

I recently got a new campervan, it had a new cambelt (and water pump) fitted just prior to delivery, as it was due for a new one. I looked on the service sheet and it says Egerton Garage at Stretford. Hope you are enjoying your new van :)

Maybe a silly question but now the guidance has changed for the cambelt interval, If the cambelt was to snap before the new recommended mileage do VW warrant it at all?

At current rate of usage, it'd take over 20 years for my van to get to 140k. Needless to say, I won’t be waiting that long before changing the cambelt.

Sounds about right to me i had dual mass and clutch done few years back on my caddy was around the £1000 mark if I remember rightly! So cambelt and water pump on top seems a fair price

They have there is a massive thread pinned to the top of the forum where this is discussed continuously... https://www.t6forum.com/threads/cambelt-water-pump-replacement-official-guidance.16418/

The van is now booked in for a major service at VW on the 23rd. It will also have the cambelt and water pump changed for that extra piece of mind for the buyer

The cambelt replacement kit includes a new cambelt (timing or toothed belt) tensioner. The squealing is almost certainly the auxiliary (ribbed) belt which I would expect to be replaced with either the alternator or the cambelt work. At your vans mileage it would have made sense to replace the...

Major service carried out at main dealer along with a cambelt and water pump change. I’m £1k down so you don’t have to be. Viewings available anytime

This was on a Golf 1.5 Evo last year and cost £850 for an oil/filter service, brake fluid, auxiliary drive belt, cambelt kit and MOT. All genuine parts and added to the VW service register. I think main dealer prices were around £1000 for belt alone and their mileage range for price matching...

Strange 1 tbh fuel there's fuel comeing threw injector pipes. But only trys to start on 1 clyinder . Then suddenly cranks overs like there's no compression ( ie when a cambelt fails ) igition off back on and attempts to start on 1 clyinder

...miles) has suddenly started making that squealing noise now on low temps - should I be concerned? I've had a new alternator and changed the cambelt (inc. water pump) this year and have done about 7k miles since. Should the tensioner have been replaced at the same time as the cambelt? It was...

Unfortunately I’m having trouble opening the pdf document (for the official guidance for cambelt changes) on my iPad . Would someone be able to help please? It is a T5 2015 and the engine code is CAAD, thanks again

Timing belt and water pump done last Wednesday. It was getting to a few degrees below 90 before that was done during a spin so it's back to the mechanic I go.

Booked the van in today for its MOT and service under the All in Plan and I’ve been told it requires its cambelt and water pump done due to it being 4 years old, at a price of £645+VAT….. Did I read somewhere on here the forum gets a discount there or am I mistaken?
