Hi, I have just bought a Challenger 1997, 3.5 petrol GDI, It has done 52000 miles. Does it have a cam belt that needs changing? Thanks

Hi,

My GDI 3.5 has done about 60K and when I had the belt checked they said that it needed changing - getting one was more difficult as apparently Mitsubishi sent 2 which were either too long or short for the 3.5. When they sorted out which one it should be it took another 10 days to get one on top of the 2 weeks it had already taken. So I would suggest you get the belt changed but make sure the correct belt is ordered and delivered first otherwise your Challenger may be off the road for a while as mine.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the info, did you order direct through Mitsubishi, what sort of costs were invloved?
