Timing Belt

Featured Replies

Hi Guys

Can anyone help with the following issue.

I have a 1.6 CR TDI. According to the Service Schedule book (page 8), it says, 'in addition every 180,000km to replace the toothed belt on diesel engines TDI CR.

I'm getting mixed messages from dealers about this. one told me 40,000 miles another said 60,000 and another said 74,000

Can any one help ??

No so sure about the mileage for diesels.

I think it's 4yr or 60k miles (96k km) for the petrols and 4yr or 72k miles (116k km) for diesels.

Thanks !! I called Skoda UK and they told me it all comes down to the chassis number and mine is 140,000 miles. Can't beleive dealerships don't know that, OR MAYBE THEY DO !!

No age limit anymore post '06. Any dealer that says there is, is trying to make money out of you.

100k plus now for a cambelt (your service book will tell you the correct mileage.).
