Geeba 0 Posted September 8, 2017 Does this sound right? Full Timing Chain kit is £355.71 inc VAT & Delivery I was expecting £200... but three and a half! Sheeesh! :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joebloggsVR69 0 Posted September 8, 2017 Yep, sounds about right, if it's all genuine parts. Did mine in 2005, along with a new clutch & flywheel, and it came to over £600 for the parts You might be able to get a 10% discount if you're friendly with your $tealer :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geeba 0 Posted September 8, 2017 Hi George, This quote was from vwgolfr32.co.uk - or VW Teeside they seem to come up as? I did check my local main-stealer but they said the parts were discontinued and not superseded :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted September 8, 2017 Hmm, i got mine for around £200 although that too was back in 2005ish. I think i got the vw guides but the chain kit was from gsf - i'll check the receipts and let you know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swiftkid 1 Posted September 8, 2017 Can't find the receipt from my vr6 rebuild but I recently bought timing chains & tensioners for r32 and that was 220 from avs. Give them a call, they are absolutely spot on and all parts are febi so good stuff Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joebloggsVR69 0 Posted September 8, 2017 Wow, that's crazy that VW have discontinued some of these parts.. ffs I had a look on VW Heritage, and the chains and guides are on there. Annoyingly, it's the smaller bits (bolts etc) that are now obsolete! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
