About 3 months ago, I replaced by VW Tdi's cambelt, with a part I bought from Goldwagon (Centurion). I drove - 1000 km, when the cambelts suddenly broke, and cost me a recon of the head (R10, 500). I replaced the cambelt with another from Goldwagon (Alberton), and not even 300km's further it shattered again, costing me another recon of the head (R10, 500). I replaced it again with a cambelt from Goldwagon (alberton) and drove around 900 km's and 2 days ago it broke again. There are no visible damage to the pully's or belt path. Now its another recon and days wasted. This inferior product has cost me R 30, 000 so far, instead of the -R1, 000 to buy and replace a PROPPER cambelt. I find this extremely disappointing and I would demand an inspection of your products in this regard, and also some way of compensating me for this loss. The original part gave me 130, 000 km of service without any problems.
This is TOTALLY un-acceptable!!!
