Lower Pulley, most slip and unless your 100% sure the location of the crank then you can end up bending Valves when re-fitting the belt, Either OE Pug or Solid
Kit's contain the belt and tensioner's, Depending on the age or who serviced it before you will find either a 136 or 137 toothed belt

Anybody else?
How much coolant? What type red/blue etc
RE: Cambelt change and service - Marcus1991 - 24-01-2013
Red and total capacity is 7.6 litres
RE: Cambelt change and service - Piggy - 24-01-2013
but you dont need 7.6litres of coolant...3 litres of coolant with the rest being clean water will do nicely

Not neciarily red. It depends whats already in there. If you mix blue and red, the CAN congeal so if it has blue in at the moment, put blue in. If it has red, put red in Unless of course your willing to do a proper clean through with a proper flush. You need no more than 4 litres of coolant.

Right gotya
Do they have to remove the aux belt to get to the cambelt? If so is it worth doing that aswell?

yes you do and for the sake of less than a tenner, might as well
