Thanks. I did my cam belt 13k miles ago and it’s been happy since. Took a bit longer than the book time of 5.2 hours but I’ve never done a cam belt before. It was interesting and fun to do and taught me a lot.

After buying the ELM327 odbii scanner I found I could only see limited items as above link so I bought a Hawkeye which does loads more. At £300 you’d expect it too. Filmed loads of data on it and put it on my you tube channel.

There’s some kv6 cam belt video’s on you tube too (not mine):

I don't use the service tools to do the belts as they are completely un-necessary!!

Several said the same when I was doing mine. Tip-ex method being the preferred option. For me to attempt it I felt they were needed. Sold them for more than I paid for them so a lucky investment. Bloke who bought them was caught out by the valve tension when his mate removed his belts before a strip down.
