Good morning all. I have a question for you.. Seems the water pump has packed up on the better halfs 2.0l diesel Freelander. The mechanic says the timing belt kit will need replacing too. The timing belt was done about 10000 miles ago. Does it really need replacing?
Thanks
Lilman.
 
Hi,
Just got all mine done yesterday......my advice to anyone who is getting the Timing Belt done is make sure the Tensioner is done & Water Pump.....as said, for the sake of a few pound more better to do a 'Full Monty' :eek:

Thanks for the replies folks :). The only timing belt kit ive found is near 170 quid :eek: on fleabay . Ill give paddock a call tomorrow when theyre open and see what price they come up with.
 
got mine as separate bits off fleabay for the grand sum of £50 belt tensioner and idler !!! I'll try n find the invoice to find out where from
check out freelander-spares-uk-601 that's who I got mine from belt £21.96 Tensioner £13'96 and idler £12.41 + p&p

If you had paid attention when it was last changed you could replace it yourself:p:p:p
