  • I always thought the 120K miles (iirc) was a bit optimistic to say the least. I'd planned to have it changed at 60K as was the case on my Laguna.

Belt

Well folks my 2007 Vrs Fabia has just done 38k. Never had a cambelt, water pump or tensioner. Do I these changed now or leave it another year. My Skoda retailer recommended a change last year, at 4 years old, but I'm a bit p***ed of with them, they always seem to look for unnessesary faults and are more concerned with reaching their targets than looking after the customer.
