hi,
Help required. Cambelt went last night on my 156 18.TS. Noticed it was playing up night before and went on the way to the garage!!!!

I know this is going to cost me. Can anyone give me an idea of what to expect.

Its failed just before 60k - is this normal. If seen other posts suggesting this shouldn't happen so early.

Any help / advice would be appreciated

General opinion is ~£1500-£2000

Mine went on my 2.0 TS at 55k miles and I was quoted £2500. As it was
under the scheduled change and had full dealer service history Alfa
picked up the bill.
