edzer 10 Posted May 11, 2013 My clutch has just gone so I'm about change it, but want to do the timing chains too but am completely skint and need to get the car working again ASAP - Its my daily driver. I realise I really should change the whole lot, however the cost.... Can anyone tell me if i could get away with changing just some bits, and which bits would be absolute musts to change? The tensioners definitely, but is there anything else which are known to go and are an absolute must? cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted May 11, 2013 You won't know until you get it all off tbh, but obviously the tensioner is the big one as you've mentioned, but the first things to go seem to be the guides. Problem you face is that if you need to change the tensioner and guides anyway, you may as well change the chain as it won't be much/if any difference in price from buying a whole kit.
