GEDDON MY BOOTY

When I changed the three aux belts ,I removed the cambelt cover to have a look at the condition of the cambelt,it looked in very good condition no fraying or cracks,it was SKF with a UK phone number on it.My conclusion was it must have been changed, as Lexus would not fit a UK belt on new assembly.It is very easy to say ( if it was me I would change it ) the car is in good condition ,but not worth a lot.I have been quoted £ 305 for a new belt fitted this is a third of the price of the car,all I am trying to do is make an educated decision on information received. PS I have cured the squeaking, it was the power steering belt not the water pump belt,it just needed to be slightly tighter.

My main question is , does anybody know what cambelt manufacturer lexus use at new production?

I have just bought a very clean IS 200 year 2000,with 108000 miles and partial service history.I have no record of a cambelt being fitted,i have just fitted all three auxiliary belts to stop a belt squeal ,i removed the top timing belt cover and the cambelt looked new, it was an SKF one. My question is did Lexus fit SKF from new? if not I will know it has had a replacement. P S I thought I had cured the belt squeal as everything was quite for a few days,now it has come back, could it be the water pump?
