Hi,

There is a lot of stuff posted on the site about Vauxhall cam belt failures - just use the search facility.

I had a Corsa 1.4 16v N reg - it was a Nov'95 car. I'm sure there was a recall notice for the cam belt idlers. I'm trying to remember when it was exactly - The car was out of warranty and would have covered almost 20,000 miles when we received the notification.

I don't know if this helps - but I would strongly suggest finding out if your car had this done as this is a highly likely cause of the belt failure.

Regards .......

Robert
