Hi there isn't a Bongo friendly garage near Dorking on the recommended list. Can anyone recommend a garage that is not on the list?

Also what frequency should cam belt be changed? it was done 4 years / 35,000 miles ago. Does it need doing soon?

thanks

AF

You should be ok for a while. Official interval is every 100,000 km (62.5k miles) or every 5 years.

There's nothing terribly special about changing the cambelt on a Bongo. Is there an independent garage in the area that comes recommended or one you can trust? You could even offer to supply the parts if sourcing parts for an import turns them off.

Yoohooo Auntie-Freda ( Bingo wings flapping in the wind) :D

Dont rule out Mazda main-dealers before getting a quote you never know (weirder things have happened :roll: )

TW White are near to you and maybe worth considering, The Milford branch have just gone independent and now call themselves Guildford Mazda so might be offering good deals ??
