Can anyone recommend somewhere to get this done without exchanging it for my arm and leg when I collect the car?
I've just been quoted £750 to replace it... :aargh4:

I could just about swallow that, but with the cambelt ready for changing, and it needing a service I anticipate this being a rather expensive month...

Ok, after a few calls around, I'm down to just over £400 from a guy who runs his own place and is an ex Audi Service Manager, so hoping he knows what he's doing :)
So, where's the best place to get a cambelt kit as well as a clutch kit, as well as the parts for a longlife service :)
