Anyone here ever did the change on this item?? If yes and have experience in doing this change, please let me know..
I just bought all the parts to do the change myself, Timing chain kit and Sprocket kit.
http://www.store.partsdinosaur.com/page254.html
Cost me $190US plus shipping and customs.. Lifestyle wanted over $10,000TT for everything.. NOT JOKING.. i was afraid to ask for a labour cost to do the change as they wanted $1500 just to change my valve cover gasket..
I'm looking to try this sometime next week when i'm off work, will document the process for the Vitara owners.. assuming i get through and not kill my engine in the process..  |
