Hi there,

Thank you, I'm ont sure of vim as it's not with me it's at garage nad my docs are in the car. This is the reg kg51 knd its a four door petrol basic 3181.
Thank you very much

I wondered if you could help me, I have recently been told by my garage that my timing belt has jumped and needs re setting.

My car started playingnup a few weeks ago but it was very random so I kept driving it as it drove fine.

My question is....because I have driven it whilst there has been an issue witht the timing, could that have caused me more problems - like more parts on the car breaking because of that???

I just don't want the garage I'm using to rip me off as I'm clueless!
I would like to be able to sound like I konw what I'm on about to them on Monday.

Thank you very much

Thank you
