Re: Cambelt change time?

The service interval was originally 50,000 miles or 5 years. However, there were a few failures and now vw recommends every 30,000 miles or 3 years. I would get it done.

Re: New member

It's had 2 gearbox rebuilds, one at 52000 and one at just over 100000. It has a 13 year VW service history and last 2 years by the garage that rebuilt the gearbox twice. It has had money spent on it and I would like to think it's been well looked after.
