Help - Timing Belt.

[Andrew Peter]

Newbie here, I joined a week ago, can anyone recommend a garage that can do a timing belt on XF S, 2011 3ltr Diesel?

I've tried loads around Leicestershire, no one seems to be able to take the job on.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi, Andrew

Looks as though mine was done by a previous owner. The garage that did it is called Martin Smith Cars, which, I presume, is around the Rotheram area, but I haven’t checked. Water pump was also changed, which I believe is usually done at the same time as the belt, at around 80,000, and might be something you want to get done at the same time. 

 

Usually, I would suggest doing it yourself, but it looks a !Removed! to get at. Mightn’t be, but it looks it. Maybe do a little research, see if you can do it yourself. If not, try that garage I mentioned. I’m sure you’ll find someone to do it. 
 

Good luck. 
 

All the best

Marty
