Just live with it until it arrives. It's not a vital part.

Engine mount faults won't cause the check emgine warning light - must be something else if its lit....

Um, the other codes are much higher priority. Overboost and cam timing. Don't remember seeing that 16395 before. You trailblazer...

I have just recently had the Cambelt repalced and new water pump and all new vacuum hoses, as they old ones were split, I called the garage they are going to look at it tomorrow as they think the the timing message is being brought up due to the vacuum message.

It's not. More likely they didn't do the cambelt right.

They probably put the N75 plumbing back together wrong, or the DVs which is giving the overboost. How does it drive? You should be losing power.

Get your Vagcom registered, or find someone with one, and log your dephasing values and boost.

I'm betting they didn't use the right tools to do the cambelt and it's a tippex special.

Where are you based?

I'm based in High Wycombe area
and it actually drives really well, not noticed any loss of power, i'm hoping it is just the N75 plumbing

and yes i need to get my Vagcom registered that's something i've been meaning to look into as it would be usefull
