16385, RE: timing belt timing Posted by Avenger, Mar-04-02 11:07 AM sounds like they lined up the cams gears wrong. you may be off a tooth or two. Take it back and make them fix it. | |

16387, RE: timing belt timing Posted by XtremeRS, Mar-04-02 11:12 AM I agree 100%. If the car went in fine, then i would def say they didn't line up the gears properly... | |

16388, RE: timing belt timing Posted by damasta, Mar-04-02 01:55 PM Whatever you do, DO NOT HAND THEM A SINGLE DOLLAR, if you drove your car in you should be able to drive it out, especially since all they did was a maintenance issue, not a somethin's'broken issue. | |

16389, RE: timing belt timing Posted by shybuck, Mar-05-02 10:53 AM Thanx that is what it was they fixed it for free. It cost me $230 belt included to put it in before they f-ed it up they said it was off a FEW teeth like 3. Hope they didnt effect valve or anything? | |

16390, RE: timing belt timing Posted by PettyCash, Mar-06-02 12:43 AM Hey Wazzup! I wanted to thank you guys for bringing this up. I had the same problem and thought it might be a bad vaccum hose or something until I read your posts. I called the shop that did the belt replacement and they are going to check it. | |
