Awesome thanks guys. Long way to go yet till it needs changing then. Not covered 9k yet lol

120k cant be right surely?

I think it is rite and the pd is 75k

120k cant be right surely?

You have a CR, check your service book!!

120k or 4 years

But Skoda say 60K or 4 years, ask any dealer

ha ha 60k? Hasn't been that since 04 and never been that on Cr.

Also no time limit on cr. Look at book or ask any non UK dealer.

Mine's in for a 60k service next week, I'll let you know...

ask any non UK dealer.

" Which non UK dealer have you asked?"

Skoda head office in cz for a start. Been posted on here many times. There are a few other members on here from other countries who will also confirm this.

When you say 120k, do you mean miles or km, also when you say no time limit do you mean i could go 6 years or so without changing it?

Dont mean to be thick !!

yes miles and yes could run 6years.

I changed my bora pd at 6years and 85k.

Crikey, that will save me a few quid then !

Just worrying that if it snaps or the rollers fail it will knacker the engine :sweat:

So what you're saying is if someone only does 8k per year (ignoring the diesel/petrol argument) they shouldn't change the cambelt until 15 years?
