We hit 80,000 miles so it's time to change our cambelt and associated parts on our selfbuild vw crafter campervan after stripping out the crafter grill & front end access to all the areas we need to get to to change out the parts

Nice video and can't believe I've found one as I'm about to do mine thanks for making it
Glad we could help
Good video mate. Gonna have a blast at this in the new year
Have fun!
Well done Sam- great job mate👏
Cheers pal when I set out to build this van it was always my intention to do as much of the work myself as I possibly can
it's not been easy but has definitely been worth the slog
Nice one Sam You are a braver man than me
Definitely a squeaky bum moment when it was time to start the engine 🤣🤣🤣
Nice one Sam I must of fitted god knows how many cam belts over the years but still get nervous first fire up lol
It's been a while for Mr pal that's what made it worse I'm glad it's done 😁
Which crafter have you got? Great job.
Prior to this video,did you have to disconnect the battery? Thanks
I don't believe I did
@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife Thanks for that. Umh, I wanted to know if you did, because my crafter van is all electric. Thanks 😊
thanks for the guide sam , just wonder whose kit you used ? keep up the good work 👍👍👍
If you're referring to the seal kit
I would only use oem kits from now on. I've replaced most of what came in the kit with original parts as they have failed or were poor quality 😁👍
Good vid. Do you allways remove viscous fan and radiotor etc to get to it?. Also i need to change crank pulley at same time as hot start issue so suspect worn pulley. How you keep pulley positions when you remove it
Yon needs the fan off to access all parts 👍
Hi just watched the cam belt video how much would you charge to change one
I'm not sure what the going rate would be, I personally don't have the time to work on any other vehicle's if your asking me to replace yours sorry
I would love to do this. But know I would leave the clamp in.
I do know where your coming from🤣🤣
Where in Cumbria are you from?
Hi mate could you tell me what brand of cam belt you would recommend?
Cheers
I only ever use oem parts straight from VW or Mercedes
TPS sells these parts also however trade only
tps.trade/
GSF sell to the public

Hope this helps you out
Hello can you tell me if i take the radeator of my vw crafter when changing the belt have you got to stand the radeator up strait i put mine on its side and now its back on the van the fan is on all the time why and is there anything i can do to fix this manny thanks paul
The fan that fitted to the back of the radiator is for you AC is that switch on mate 👍
@@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife You was only wright sam nice on mate
@@paul8821 what are the chances of that 😆 glad it's sorted pal👍
Just found you about to rebuild 2010 2.5 crafter engine .Can you tell what year this on is please .
Hi, our engine is a 2016 2.0ltr Euro 6 blue motion
Do you not use a torque wrench?
Hi, Yes, we do. I guess we lost it in editing, maybe something I should include in future vlogs
