Question to all those who have had their cambelts changed on the gti 138
Has anyone noticed a leak of coolant after their cambelt has been changed but not seen any difference in the engine i.e. overheating, not responding properly?
Did see something on here from a fellow info member who had to replace a part after their cambelt change but can't find the thread or if it is the same problem I have.

should be covered under warrenty if its a fault in a part fitted or the quality of the work
see what the garage that did the work say most places will offer to sort it f.o.c. if they believe they are at fault
