the tensioners werent faulty.... just a tad temprimental lol

you could be looking at expensive head rebuild, or just a new belt and a few valves. you wont know of damage until heads of - no quick fix btw.

replace rollers with metal ones and get em replaced everytime timing belt is done. it was more than likely plastic tensioners u had on. cheap skate vauxhall!

im just wondering if anyones had any problems with them as mine packed up last week due to the cambelt tensioner exploding. Also does anyone know of a mod to correct it.
