The garage I spoke with insisted that I leave a review here as they are so disgusted by the practice.

Basically I had a new timing belt installed in my Vectra here not to long ago, and apparently is it standard practice to also change a water pump as the belt needs to come off in order to do so. As water pump failure is a common fault and 99% of the time gets changed with the timing belt.

Bristol Motors changed my timing belt but did not change water pump that has now failed.

"Very poor practice" I was told by a senior mechanic.
