I think my variator's getting shot after only about 20.000kms / 2 1/2 years :bang::bang::bang: Or, if not, there's a f****n' tractor following me around . How much is it for one in the UK? (not a tractor ) If I do decide to change it soonish would anybody care to mail me one (obviously I'd cover all the costs). As far as I remember it's about £300-ish for just the variator here + cam-belt + labour

If the variator noise wasn't enough, my B's still all shaky some times (haven't had the opportunity to check it out yet) + the wiper's knackered :bang: So, with 25 degrees and loads of sun I'm driving around in the Punto :shrug:

You could probably get the Variator, Cambelt and labour for around £300 here.

Sorry to hear about your tractor problem. Sounds a bit soon to be getting it back..........

I'm looking with jealous eyes at all the drop tops at the moment. It's been over thirty here for the last few days.....

Are your wipers a case of rust city, like LRBs a while back?

E-Mail DTR.

Variator £80
Worth then changing the Cam belt and Water Pump at the same time.

£80s dirt cheap Is anybody going to DTR in the near future that could buy me one and mail it to me (with "GIFT" in big letters on the customs declaration, as I'm not too fond of paying VAT ). Payment by PayPal (or bank transfer), of course :wave:

Btw., I changed the cambelt (w/both the wossitcalled wheels) and water pump less than two years ago (changed cambelt twice that year as I forgot to buy the wheels the first time ). Would I need to change the water pump again? Or is it a case of might as well?
