2.0 9a KR cams/cam belt change - Anything else worth doing?

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I'm about to have my cams changed to the KR cams. Whilst my mechanic is doing this I figured the cam belt & tensioner should be changed along with the cam connecting chain.

 

Some of the cam kits I've seen include a water pump which I assume must be a preventative measure, rather than a necessity.

 

I'm all for preventative maintenance and wondered if there's anything else worth changing whilst the car is in bits?

 

Any pointers would be appreciated.

 

Regards,

Stuart.

hi, if you don't know the history of the engine, for the sake of 30 odd quid its always worth changing the water pump while its in bits.

i don't know what life you get from oil pumps on the 9a but mines done 117k...
