Cambelt Change Interval 1.6tdi

Featured Replies

I have a 2014 1.6tdi which has covered almost 50k miles.

 

Anyone know what the cambelt change interval is? (I usually do it 10k early just in case!)

SOLVED - Info is in the erwin documents!

Nice to share the info then,  what do they say,  miles / years?  For the UK,  people owning cars not just fleet operators?

I did wonder if anyone would ask ....

 

"Replacing toothed belt for camshaft drive and tensioning pulley" 120,000km in high-dust countries, 210,000km in low-dust countries (I suspect the UK fits into the latter). Best however to download your own copy of the documentation in case of misinterpretation.

 

So I won't worry about it for a while, just have a peek at it every now and again just in case.

130,000 or even just 120,000 miles is a longtime with say a car that only does 12,000 miles a year.

10 whole years. 

Manufacturers Schedules and guidelines need taking with a pinch of salt.  

Those buying a used car maybe ex fleet / lease and wanting the car as a keeper should maybe go on the safe side or the manufacturers suggested mileage.
