Re: ebay timing belt kit

The link doesnt point to a specific listing, but Ive read many members have used the kits without many negative issues.

Re: ebay timing belt kit

With the exception of this last time around, I've always bought my kits off ebay. Never had a problem between 4 different cars. I'd be curious to know if more people have something to say about them though.

Re: ebay timing belt kit

Get the Contitech/continental kit. The listings have a black box with red writing on it. Many have used them without issue.

These are actually the ones I've used as well. Continental kits are what I use for our euro cars.
