Superb 2 1.9 tdi timing belt service interval

[Joe41]

Hi need some info regarding a timing belt interval on a superb 1.9 tdi it's a car that I am thinking of buying the car has done 122k and the timing belt was done in Jan 2014 I think that is way too long,the seller says 92k to be done first.any thoughts?

I  not sure if any revisions on any VAG group cars but for my 2005 octy 1.9 they made it mandatory at 4 years and about 80k, whichever came sooner. Later cars like my Superb CR 2lt moved back to 5 years and maybe more miles.  Looking at the age yours have passed it in years, so needed . You could always call a dealer/vag specialist or 2 and ask the opinion to be sure.

FWIW - I think that the timing belt could be the least of your prospective problems. The 1.9PD wasn't designed to work with a DPF, unlike the later CR engines. 

 

I wish you well.
