Haha..ye certainly know how to cheer up a fellaProbably bolloxed, let us know how it went, RIP.
You'll need to provide more information when was the timing belt supposed to be changed? i.e. 60k miles or every 5 yrs which every comes sooner is specified for some cars.
If you passed the recommended time and didn't change it then your looking at rebuilding the top end of the engine new belt, tensioners, water pump, new valves etc the will well over a grand and as other have said may not be economically viable.
If you changed the belt as required using genuine parts etc or the belt snapped before it was due to be changed. I would seek some of the cost from the manufacturer / dealer.
Got the car back eventually today. There was some additional damage that wasn't seen initally, e.g. the coilpack had to be replaced; cost me €950 in the end. Could have been worse I suppose!!!!!
Just happy to have my car back; the last two weeks were a nightmare trying to borrow cars and public transport in my area is practically non-existent
who serviced this car in between the 30,000 miles? was it a registred Daewoo dealer? And if it was shouldn't they have been looking out for it?
