Re: Timing belt replacement

Plus the manual isnt usually the most upto date. For example the MK1 octy vRS, if you went by the manual would have gone 110K miles before a cambelt change. Due to issues of belt failure VAG changed it to 60K miles/4 years, but the manual will still say 110K miles.

For the UK market the belt change is recommended at 60K miles (96,000 kms) or 4 years whichever occurs first for most if not all engines.
