Hello my peugeot 306 hdi needs to be serviced. The cam belt, pulleys, altantor belt with pulleys and water pump need changing. My friend was ment to be doing the car cheap cash but its been 3 months and not sure when its getting done. Ive got all the parts needed for the job but the car just waiting around now.
I need somebody who knows wat there doing "properly" not somebody who "thinks" they know. Also the car off the road at the moment untill these parts are changed.
Ive done the oil, oil filter, fuel filter and gear box oil so there out of the way.
North Wales area near Wrexham.

Looks like it worth doing for that price.
Then hopefully I able to get my 306 on the road shortly after nearly 5 months. Been worth the wait now its looking alot better.

Things are getting serious now this person who ment to be doing the job taking the piss. I asked when can we arrange to do the car he said he would ring me back and check when he free fair enough. I heard nothing that day then I phoned now for afew weeks no replys to texts, calls, voice messages.
Its all dam strange at first he would allways reply but the last 2 or 3 weeks it all stopped. F*ck people like that who want extra bussiness they get a bad name now tough sh*t and loss of bussiness of loads of people I know how dumb can you get.
Im sick of people lieing or pissing about. So now the car just parked up since Febuary. Ive done most of the jobs to the car now but Im stuck now.
Im not paying garage prices there ridiculas half the price of the car with out the parts!
All thats left to do now is the cambelt + pulleys, altantor + pulleys, water pump thats it. I got all the parts so thats made things alot simpler.
So Im back to the drawing board again oh boy!
