crank pulley change on cambelt replacement

[Foxspeed]

lol they are clueless. much safer going to a specialist. my 5 year service is due now and I'll be taking it to fred.

sorry cannot say that about 2 of the dealers near me....

There are some interesting viewpoints here. The particular dealer I talked to was wests cambridge which I was advised to use by Steve. I can only assume therefore that they know their stuff on renaultsports

there is an actual renault technical bulletin about changing the pulley....

Mine got replaced when I took it to R SPORT in Wimbledon. It cost £133.46 + vat.

I replaced mine at the 5 year service.

TDF said the pulleys are often cracked at 5 years, suggesting they will eventually fail. Then I got a quote from KTEC and they also recommended changing it.

Better safe than sorry....

The TB does indeed say it needs changing... Renault repair manuals have been saying that since they started fitting the dampened pulleys back in '03 on the vvc'd K4M's and the '225 is the same.
