Hi all. I've just purchased a T6 from a VW branch. 2017, 33k miles. Highline I wanted to get a cambelt as part of the purchase, as I am still on the mindset of 5 years.. they will offer a cambelt change for £599 instead of the £699. I could go a local garage and I think they would charge...

VW recently changed their position on cambelt replacement and now recommend the cambelt is changed every 140k (they also dropped any time-based criteria). https://www.t6forum.com/threads/cambelt-water-pump-replacement-official-guidance.16418/post-602442 I'm sure most on here would caution...

how common is it to break the damper whilst changing the cambelt just been charged over £1000 for belt change at 6 years old 40000 miles

Cambelt and water pump replaced, £392 all in, not a bad price I don't think.

Did nothing get said when you phoned to book in cambelt change? Is it with VW?

Very common problem. If you are replacing, you will end up replacing the cambelt and water pump at the same job.

Hi guys and girls just after some information please if anyone could help me my t6 has just had cambelt water pump and crank seal changed. There is a fault code for the intercooler waterpump. Can someone tell me if this is the same waterpump that's just been changed that's driven by the cambelt...

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

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!

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.
