Get a great-value cambelt change with one of our Newcastle upon Tyne cam belt specialists.
A good price with a friendly team
Brilliant service at this garage and was really impressed. Took my car over on the night before and left the keys in the letterbox drop off. The following day they told me that a garage I had went to in the past had fixed the coil pack on my car wrong and that it wasn’t bolted into place and they fixed this problem and told me the other reasons why the engine management light was on in my car. Problem solved in a day and would definitely recommend this garage to anyone.
Great job as always
Cheap rear disks and pads, good customer service, didn't adjust hand break but didn't say they would, I think my expectations were too high, lol.
after having a mechanical breakdown on the A1 I had to be towed home, after a week of trying to find a mechanic to assess the work without success Fenham Garage service contacted me with an offer they arranged for my Peugeot to be recovered to there garage, at a very reasonable charge they assessed the damage and gave me a very reasonable quote for the work to be done, I accepted and told them to go ahead, within a day I was contacted by the mechanic who explained exactly what was wrong with the car and when it would be fixed at all times they were polite friendly and efficient,tru to their word the car was ready on the day specified.I would certainly give this garage a 5 star Rating and recommend it to anyone. Regards G Carlisle

Ok
well where do I start with my praise for everyone at VRS REPAIR SERVICES who go that extra mile to put their customers first, after being totally ripped off quote wise by the big high street exhaust companies one of which refused my car because the manifold bolts were seized,VRS came to my help within minutes of posting on the site, cost was quarter than the high street exhaust places and an extremely fast turnaround. before paying any expensive high street fitting centre costs give VRS a call you will not be dissappointed, am so pleased to find these guys. VRS = VALUE RELIABLE SERVICE. Thank you VRS your a credit to the auto trade
Very efficient
Great service from this Garage. Very personable staff great information and explanation every step of the way. As a single woman did not feel unsure of honest quote which happens frequently and in fact felt very secure throughout the repair. Will certainly use again and would definitely recommend them. Thank you VRS.
I was quoted 96 And was on way to give car but my car had other ideas... So now car is in scap heap heaven Theses lads where fully understandable and everyone knows cars are unpredictable when ya need them not to be. So my work didn't get done but the manner on which I was handled at was brilliant 100% will hopefully get another car back on road and theses guys will get my business Thanks guys for fully understanding not many garages would
Great job done car running better, I will use PSA again for any more work if needed.
Top bloke. Great lad is Mark. Put a new timing belt and water pump (at my request). Collected my car and dropped it off same day and even gave me the time of day for a chat and appraisal of the condition of my ageing VW Golf. Pointed out that my flywheel was getting noisy - which I hadn't noticed until he pointed it out. Told me not to worry just yet though.... I'll be getting him to do this other repair at some point. Recommend this garage. Top bloke
Thank you Mark and PSA for replacing my clutch and flywheel. I was in a tricky situation because, I’m sure like everyone, I depend on my car for work and family. I had been given some eye watering quotes for the job. I’m really happy with the price and the quality of the job. My car is now purring rather than rumbling! The job was done quickly and communication was excellent. It was a huge relief to get my car back and all sorted by the afternoon. I recommend this garage, even if it is slightly out of your area bear it in mind because of the value and quality of the work, which can be really hard to find. Especially as a woman going into a garage, prices and service seem to vary a great deal. I’m very happy with the outcome. Thank you!
Very happy from get-go, explained clearly what would need to be done, called and advised about additional part replacement even send the picture of the part so I could see the damage. Job completed very quickly, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Working away from home and your car fails on you is the worst thing in the world,But thanks to PITT STOP AUTOS they saved me from the moment of contact to delivery of car repaired can't think the team enough worked late to get it done for me very professional work and to talk to,Defo recommend these guys to any 1 and will use again if needed. Thanks Ryan from sunny scotland

The cambelt is a rubber belt which controls the timing of a vehicle’s internal combustion engines. It is vital in the process of making the vehicle run smoothly as it also ensures the crankshaft and camshaft rotate in synchronisation.
A snapped cambelt is uncommon however tension issues are more widespread.
If the belt is too loose it will end up whipping around inside the engine which will cause a variety of knock on effects and if the belt is too tight it will put a strain on the bearings of the cogs it's fitted to.
A tight belt will cause a whining noise to be emitted from the engine so if you hear this sound make sure to book a repair as soon as possible. You shouldn’t wait until this happens though, as the damage caused by a faulty cambelt will end up costing you even more money in repairs.
As you will see in the FAQ section and video above, the cost of a cambelt repair can vary depending on the vehicle and garage. The biggest cost associated with this job type will be the labour itself.
This is because the parts are based deep within the engine and getting to them takes time. The components themselves won’t cost you a huge amount as they are not complex so don’t be surprised to see labour costs making up the biggest part of the bill.
Even if your cambelt doesn’t completely break its important to keep an eye on the component as per the instructions provided by your cars manufacturer, if you leave it for too long, the belt could snap and cause catastrophic engine failure.
The cambelt will need replacing at some point, usually around the 30,000 – 50,000 mile mark but make sure to consult the vehicles owner’s manual to double check as it may vary depending on the vehicle.
