Hi,

You need to put info in the text box not just a title.

Info such as which engine type you are asking about, for example.

2012 Fabias were made with a fair selection.

Remember that the "forever" is for the life of the belt, when it fails it will cause a lot of engine damage.

Typically, a cambelt in a 2012 Fabia has a recommended service life of 5 years - but do include your engine type/code.

Had, rather than has.

Up until a few years ago (2023) when they dropped 5 year recommendations in the UK.

I don't believe that applied only to engines made from 2023 onwards.

Nothing lasts forever. Belt may be ok but tensioner and maybe waterpump may fail. Still do mine every 5 years/60k for peace of mind.
