Timing belt change

Post by vv3bby » Tue Sep 19, 2017 8:42 am

Hi,

My D3 is now just hitting 55k.

Im just wondering when i should get the belt changed - as im being told a number of things (between 50k & 80K) the reason being is that the car itself is 10 years old, so trying to take this into account too.

Any advice would be great, thanks.

Steve
