Quandry :

I'm due for a change of timing belt ....
Not by the amount of klms i do...
Though by the amount of time that has elapsed since last replacement.
It got replaced in 2002 just b4 i took command of Gcar

It was only while on this Forum that .. a few pennies dropped/years passed ...... thus cambelt.


I have a 1987 S3 HC na version

I believe that the HC engine was different to previous models.

They must be... as some parts cost difference reflects it.

What brands and part numbers correlate /cross reference ... to the part i need.

I can get GATES .... DAYCO...ACDELCO parts over here in OZ probably more if i knew who else made them ...

Sometimes doing your own x-referencing is better than going to a parts shop and asking them..
Who quickly look at the parts list on Pc or catalogue ... give it to you ... just to get rid of you ...try to install it .....WRONG BLOODY PART !!!! (we have all been there) furious

Be nice to turn up at the parts shop ... hit them with the CORRECT PART NUMBER ... then check that they have given correct part.

Many thanks

Thanks

The Dayco 95249 is a proper HTD belt, made with reinforced HSN. It's on my car and those of several of my friends.
