Servicing Land Rover
hi has any one had this happen to them ? just spoke to landrover in Herts to clarify the cam belts have been changed on the 105 k service says it has and been stamped and signed in service book ?? The answer is they can't officially say the belts have been changed as they can't find the invoice sheet . Have been in discussion with central customer services no joy !! So guess what they said ??? Couldn't beleive it ?? If I was unable to get conformation the belts were changed have it done again to be sure as no way off checking !!!!! What takedisco3 55 sidesteps upgrade front grill basic bessy ! Less to have less to go wrong ?? ????

Same boat mate.. Mines now showing approx 125,000 on 55 plate, garage assured me (previously supplied by them) that the belts were changed, but misplaced paperwork AFTER we had purchased it.. Not really in a position to replace, but having my EPB looked at soon by indy so will ask his opinion,

Takes the !!! Have been in touch with a specialist rather than landrover themselves and had a quote off 150 including vat to have a look and check they have been done ?? Question is if they need to be done then up goes the bill to 950 !!!! Waiting on the previous owner hope fully to confirm!!disco3 55 sidesteps upgrade front grill basic bessy !

if they stamped the book and belts are mentioned they did it....its official....if not they are fraud and should pay when the thing blows up.

With belt failure being slightly expensive it's not something I would be willing to take someone's word alone on, I would just do the front one and if belt and idler's (incl oil pump} look's recent, change it leave the rear one alone.
If you dont do it the thought will alway's be on the back of your mind.
