Cheap parts - timing belt and water pump

[Deleted User] · 2011-05-10 12:08:00

hi - looking for these parts for an audi a3 tdi and a mazda mx5 - can anybody recommend a good parts website that gives the best value - shipping in from NI / Abroad not an issue. do you need to get a tensioner also - or would the belt alone suffice?

Have you actually gone to a motorfactors and asked what they are?

Only on a very rare occasion have online stores beaten the price I can get at a motorfactor.

Have a look at www.micksgarage.ie as a starting point to see around what price you should be paying then ring up a few motorfactors.

Id always replace the tensioner when doing a belt.
