That is big debate discussed in this long thread: https://www.t6forum.com/threads/cambelt-water-pump-replacement-official-guidance.16418/

...conversion with a business pack. The engine is a steady trundler with fairly low mpg (spec in the first pic below). The can has done 90k with cambelt and pump replaced at 80k. There are others out there a bit older which have more power AND better mpg. I appreciate that the second picture...

Thank you, the plan look good, but . There is no cover for damage for premature cambelt failure.

Have you asked them? The cost of coolant and pump is nowhere near £357. Vacuum filling of coolant can start while the rest is being re-assembled so minimal extra time, maybe 30 minutes. It’s just a means of subsidising a fancy showroom and staff to provide smiles with coffee.

Thanks - yes got the work done - including the new cambelt $$$!

Yes. Pump change makes sense same time as cambelt due to economical reasons although if you want to save up a bit you can change the pump every second time. They work okay for 200k. The alternator belt makes sense to change same time too but you will find that the tensioner, belt and additional...

Hi all, 2018 highline SWB less than 40k miles, Euro 6, t6 diesel, manual, diesel heater, 60 liters tank, cambelt changed and all documents in order. Is 37 k a good price?

Maybe mine requires cheaper parts? This is the screenshot from VWCV website. For ref my van is a 2018 102bhp shuttle.

Just had mine done 4 years old 22k. I have the all in and they did it for free. Had cambelt and water pump changed at same time and they charged me £480. Quite happy with that for a main dealer tbf.

Yes@Drive Wayne I'm already seeing this affect. Booked in to do cambelt and water pump based on age as only 43K on it.

Just an update So I paid for my Cambelt doing around 80k miles I have a receipt but it’s not logged in the service book and it’s not in the VW computer, so they recommend I pay £800 for a new one, and also in the urgent attention was to replace my whole drivers seat as the cloth is slightly...

Hi Guys just booked my 2018 T6 150 DSG in for service and Mot as it's 4 years old in January I was expecting to replace cambelt / water pump and DSG gear box oil... VM service informed me that according to the chassis number my engine and DSG box are on 5 year schedule!

Its very hard to give advice on an issue like this, have you owned it from new? What type of milage does it do? Water pump is a serviceable item anyway so should have been changed 2021/2022 along with cambelt and aux pulleys.

Christmas presents sorted - cambelt kit, aux belt, water pump and crank oil seal

I’ll soon be into year 7, no worries here.

...the checks have been made. Depends on which dealer (search on this forum). Some seem to be diligent, some less. Ask them if they can do the cambelt. What tyres are on it? That would be another expense on top. If you have a Carista, ask them if you can plug it in quickly to have a quick...

ouch big day!

Fresh 12 month MOT on it today along with a full service. Also topped up the ceramic coating. MOT tester said its a lovely example and loved the look of it. Also forgot to mention in the add that the cambelt, cambelt tensioner, aux belt and aux belt tensioner were replaced earlier this year.
