    Recommend me a service place on the Sunshine Coast near Maroochydore please

    Polo needs its 7 year service so Timing belt and waterpump needed Been quoted $1300? from dealer.

    Surely an independant can do better.

    Googled it and come up with Andrews Hitech, Continental Car repairs at Caloundra (a bit far away) and SVS at Kunda Park.


    Any recommendations on these please.

    Passat also coming up in June.. Oh the pain

    Dont know will have to read the service manual but the dealer didnt say when I asked the cost of a 7 year service. Manual says toothed belt and tensioner at 120,000km car has only done 22,000 since Jan 2011 but I read its that or 7 years

    Manual is not entirely specific to the car, or the Australian market.

    Timing belt, where fitted, is due every 105K or 7 years in Australia.

    It's chain-driven. No timing belt.

    Hence my mentioning that the book is not specific to your exact car.

    Well thats probably worse after all the slipping tensioners so it will still need to be done wont it.

    No one has recommended anyone to do it yet though and for some reason this thread doesnt show up in new posts on my computers

    No service interval on the chain. You replace it, and it's associated parts when it fails, or is failing.

    Unless it's making a racket, or the water pump is no longer pumping, or has sprung a leak, leave it be.
