this 1

-Thanks

Don't think it matters,

As long as you trust them and you get the pulley and tensioner.

How much is the kit from Lexus?

Stav

not sure not phones lexus but i would presume it would be alot more, anyone ordered the kit from lexus if so what have they been quoted?

-thanks

With kit like this which is really important I would always buy it from the Dealer (LEXUS) at least you know that you are getting the exact part you require and that it is guarranteed. There is a lot of "aftermarket" stuff out there that you don't know it's history. If this kit lets you down then your engine is Donald Ducked and I wouldn't take that chance to save a few quid.
Don't get me wrong lots of aftermarket products out there that are"better" than OEM but on stuff that is vital I would always cover my ar$e.
Just my opinion

Terry

any idea how much lexus sell the kit for?

Bast to just ring up or Pm Chris.S

Hey, I have an IS300, and its about £130 all in, but this does include the gold discount I think your looking around the £120 mark, but as stated earlier best to give Lexus a call.

go main dealer. Its safer bet. Kit is not a lot, look for other cambelt/timing belt threads. Think its about £110 from lexus.

just been quoted £150 from lexus Guildford the kits on ebay come to like £115
has anyone brought a kit off ebay and are they any good?
