|  timing belt and other belts my mate at works has a 1.4 16v x reg fabia, last week the timing belt and tensioners had to be replaced at 55,000 miles i have the same model,engine and year. my car has done 48,000 miles so i'm a little worried.other then the timing belt are there others belts (fan belt,cam belt etc),so i could replace them at the same time ? it cost my mate about £200 from his dealer but i'll be going to an ex- skoda dealer so will be cheaper. thanks |

| Re: timing belt and other belts the 16v has two cambelts both need to be changed. Have a look at the alternator belt, if its cracked replace it.

| Re: timing belt and other belts When I had a 16V Polo, same engine as Fabia I believe, it cost me about £400 a couple of years ago.
