There is a toothed belt from the crankshaft that drives the water pump and the exhaust camshaft.

The inlet camshaft is driven from the exhaust camshaft by a chain.

mutley read in some other post that you recommend a place near canterbury to get your belt changed, could u tell me their details as mine will need doing soon and trying to get a good price....I live in tonbridge but used to live canterbury so know the area well.

I have used The Motorist Center in Hersden on the A28 (the Sturry Road) between Canterbury and Ramsgate for many years, and bought my present Toledo from them. Formerly a Seat main dealer, they are now an independent (by their own choice) and I have always had first class service from them.

yeah I know hersden on the way to planet thanet my last few services were done through there before bought the car so its always good to get a second opinion...I will give them a call and get a quote.

cheers
