Car died on the way home today. Long story short, RAC bloke says it could be cambelt and that valves and pistons could be damaged. How much do I need to cry right now?

till you dont find what happen its hard to tell cost

I feel sick with worry........

Fingers crossed its fixable. Are you putting it into a garage?

i was too when my pulley and crank went, but on the end was not that pricey.

first find whats damage

Gonna have to take it to a garage so someone who knows what they're doing can tell me what's what

Aww no! Yeah definitely find out what's definitely gone wrong, but if you cn come back to us with a quoted price before you get it done so we can tell you if it's a fair price or not. Between us we've all had "incidents" so we can let you know if we paid simular or not

RAC bloke says the belt hadn't broken but slipped and threw the timing out? Reckons it will cost upwards of £700.

now thats step in my dictionary

Sounds like the Auto tensioner failed

Were you in Vtec at the time?

Could be as simple as a new auto tensioner and cam belt plus labour or it could be much worse
