Hi,

I cant seem to find information on how often the timing belt on my Superb from 2017 with the 2.0TDI 190HP has to be changed.

What I seem to can find is 210.000km, is this right? Is there also a age based interval or is it only on distance base?

Hi,

That's right. 210000km is the VAG recommandation on TDI190 for your MY2017 (I have the same engine, same MY).

There's no time limitation.

However some dealers recommend to replace it after 7-8 years, if you don't drive that much...

On my side, I had it replaced at 62000km and 3.5 years because of coolant pump issue. Pump has been replaced under extra warranty (on known issue causing overheating)) and I took the opportunity to replace it at the same time. My TDI190 has now 135000km on the clock.

Thank you for the information, thats what I have been able to find as well.

Think I should see if I can find out how to get the cover off, so I can see the belt. As it is now approaching 8 years old, but only 140.000km

i think you are in the moment to change ...
