Good quality part, my only issue was the retaining pin they need to use a smaller one, the space to fit this was too tight and had to carefully bend the retaining pin to give enough room to position it. other than that, great part and perfect match to the OG one

We have had great service from Autodoc for years now. The prices are unbeatable and they deliver quality parts to your door within days. Highly recommend to all.

ive been in thd Motor Trade most of my Life & In my own opinion Gates make the Best belts going & fitted as Genuien parts with many Manifacturures.

Great quality parts as you expect of gates products, much cheaper buying from Autodoc rather than motor factors , excellent fast delivery too

The water pump comes complete with 3 gaskets: one for itself, one for the thermostat flange, and one gasket for the hoses flange nearby

Just works. Material looks strong enough to trust it. Easy to install if you are prepared. Took be about 30 minutes on a civic fn2.

I chose this item because it came up as a recommended associated purchase and it seemed a good brand and price point was excellent

Quality Gates Belt & Pully kit . Complete kit with all required parts for a full service . No issues and best price from AutoDoc

Got this kit to replace my old one, really good quality, can’t expect any less from gates 🫶 spot on quality and well packaged

It a Gates and they sponsored me back in the day. You could pull a house down with one of these as long as its genuine.

Very happy with the prompt service, goods come on time, good price, and a friendly delivery man.....what's not to like !
