Intending to get timing belt and pump done when I get the 2008 1.4tdi Fabia greenline next week. Any recommendations where to competitively source (preferably genuine) Skoda kit if possible please? Would probably do air and fuel filter at same time to start with a clean bill of health, so would prefer to buy all from same place. Remote location, so mail order probably best :) Many thanks!

 

Can you get the person or place doing the work to get the parts from TPS, or do you know someone that can.

Try carparts4less (same company as Eurocarparts but their online arm) - http://www.carparts4less.co.uk/timing-belt-kit. I sourced mine and the water pump from here, plus worth looking out for their regular discounts, currently 15% I think if you get on their email list.

Thanks gents - will take a peep :)

When you do the fuel filter make sure you fill the filter with fuel! From what I read when I did mine you only get fuel when the engine is turning over, so takes ages to fill and can flatten battery, I used hose clamps on the hoses and a turkey Baster thing to put fuel in it
