Hi,
Apologies to all if this topic has been discussed on other threads but I am a newbie to this site..................
5 years ago, a Yeti TDI 170 Elegance was purchased for the wife. She is still over the moon about the car and I have to say, I like it very much as well. I am now at a point when I am told I have to have the cambelt replaced which I fully appreciate however, the car has travelled less than 10,000 miles!!
My question to you all is quite simply, should I replace the belt at such a low mileage? I appreciate all the arguments regarding belts degrading with time but what is the general opinion? I am led to believe that some recommendations originating from other European Skoda 'authorities' make reference to mileage only with no reference to a time based replacement trigger but I have no first hand evidence of this.
Any comments please?..............................and yes, I know less than 2k miles per annum is a bit extreme but that's how it is!
