I can't make my mind up - I'd like to think it reached the limiter in 3rd easier than this before but I just don't know!

Can changing the belts really make a car suffer?

I know the timings could be off slightly but I thought it sorted itself out? when I first got it back it was ready to stall 2 or 3 times till it corrected and now its perfectly fine...

Is it my imagination? I must admit that I always think this after I've had work done!

I always thought ULF was quicker before its belt change. Worrying thing is they only told me afterwards that it was the first time they'd done one on a 16v/willy. :shock:

They did have a mk1 V6 in though which I took as a good sign.
