VW Cambelt Change Near You
Book a visual cambelt inspection in just 3 steps
A cambelt, also known as a timing belt, regulates the combustion process by synchronising your crankshaft and camshaft which, in turn, open and close the cylinder valves. A cambelt problem can be disastrous for your engine. Your car can’t work properly without this toothed belt - your engine parts will smash together more than 100 times a minute, causing irreversible damage.
That’s why you need to look after it properly and book a timing belt replacement when your car needs it.
About Volkswagen
A heritage German brand that has been a favourite for decades, it’s hard to throw a stone without hitting someone who owns or has owned a Golf at some point in their life! It’s essentially a rite of passage for anyone searching for a safe, reliable, and family-friendly car.
Interestingly, Volkswagen has three cars in the top 10 list of best-selling cars of all time - the Volkswagen Golf, the Beetle, and the Passat. Not bad, right?
Known for their reliability and value for money, VWs have long served as a reasonably priced little sibling to the more luxurious Audi, receiving excellent reviews across the board when it comes to the motoring press. You’d be hard pressed to find a range of cars as practical, safety-conscious, attractive and just generally good to drive as a Volkswagen.

How Much Does a VW Cambelt Change Cost?
The price of your cambelt change will vary depending on the garage you visit. On average, a VW cambelt change can cost between £300 and £400. Most of this price comes from the labour costs, as changing the cambelt is a very labour-intensive job – many parts of the vehicle need to be removed to get to the cambelt, and then put back on afterwards, which can take several hours.
