For my GTi

Post by Philip Chidlow »

I am after a new thermostat, tensioner kit, and rocker cover gasket as GSF don't do those anymore. And I thought I'd ask here for advice on where to look next. I will want a cambelt too - are Gates the best?

Also if anyone can point me in the direction of a Valeo radiator for said GTi as well as a new waterpump and a new or known good HP pump.... it'd be appreciated. I can get auxiliary belts from GSF still, I think.

Planning some work...

Ta, Phil

Dayco belts for the win! OEM part as well.

Have you tried the bay for a radiator? Seem to be BX rads coming up new quite regulalry. Usually around the £100 mark.

Everything else i imagine you can get from a good motor factors (bar maybe the pump), or perhaps from GSF's competitors (ECP for example).

Try these for parts delivered to your door.They can usually get anything and everything (top brands Bosch, gates, lucas etc.) You can enter your car & parts required details and send an e-mail enquiry. They are trade only but you can set up a sole trader cash account on line and have parts delivered direct to your door. (I have an account through work)
You may not have heard of them but they are massive up North
