Lates is over on XPF and .org, so I know him. I will be using him to do my belts this summer, unless someone comes up with a better price

Lates is a star and I'd highly recommend him!! He did my stat just after I bought the zs, squeezed me in at short notice and a great price. They do most of the work outside under gazebos (the workshop is 'under construction') but don't let this put you off, they've got all the tools etc and have got the cambelt changes on the kv6 down to a fine art and can have them done in under four hours!! Don't just take my word for it though....

Think I will keep them in mind, although mine only has 44k on clock as yet, but go to see recommended garages.

The water pump on the KV6 very rarely need replacing (unlike on the K4 engine). Not sure what the bolts and rollers are that are listed above. In addition to the tensioner, the idler pulley should be replaced.

The price for replacing the cam belts on the KV6 engine should be somewhere around £650 to £700 and takes around 7 hours to complete. I would be suspicious of anyone quoting significantly less that this price.
