Hi everyone I'm looking for a good independent garage to fit my new inlet manifold and do the cambelt for me, there Is a guy advertising on eBay a service to fit the manifold and do the cambelt for 200 labour which I think is excellent but he is in Birmingham, spoke to him on the phone and he has been very helpful and I could drive down early and he will do it while I wait but thought I would see if anybody has used a garage a bit more local to me, thanks

Never used them but Barrie Miller in Thornaby is supposed to be good, and is some sort of Vauxhall specialist. but like I said, I have never used them.

Barrie miller will do it for 200 which I think is pretty good, just need to order my new manifold and cambelt kit then it's going in, can anyone give a clear idea as to what is the best way to keep the new inlet sut free, also my actuator is still working fine, would you chand it while your in there or leave it? Cheers

As you have an 04 rg use the fiat semi blanking gasket/gaskets, Ive done this as many others have the 04 should take to it well & produce 'no' fault lights hopefully, use the square one for your 150 but some use the oval one to. pics & part numbers in these links.
