Good afternoon all,
Was thinking today at the lights my car has done 117000kms, mmmmmm wonder if the previous owner did the timing belt? Then I relised I dont even know if my car runs a belt or timing chain. So If someone would please let me know if the rd28t motor in a gu runs a belt or chain that would be fantastic. I ask this as I cant find any service dockets to say either way.

Thanks Stefan

Don't know for sure but if it has a belt it should have a note in the Service Book to tell you it should be renewed every x Ks.

The 3.00 ZD30 has a chain.

Hi Ed,
Thanks for that, I dont have a hand book for the car so I guess 100000kms service life as per the norm for most cars?

Thanks Stefan

G'day Stefan,
Yep, according to Gregory's manual# 519 (updated edition), 100,000km replacement is the go...

Well on_patrol..... With a 3lt motor you don't need to worry about the 100000kms service interval, as thats when they replace the whole motor isn't it???? LOL

It seems GQ TUFF that you are a confused person, you call yourself GQ TUFF and you own a GU. So stop being a Bit ch and pull your head in. LOL

Have a nice day mate.

With a father like yours no wonder you are confused, he sure is.
