Its a 1989 TD Jetta, not the latest jobbie.

I've never had to have a cambelt change with any Jetta or Bora that I've owned and they have covered many, many thousands of miles...:-)

Bounce - following the re-instatement of BB's link for the reasons given and after a rather heavy hint was dropped in a post in Tech. Sorry BB.

Locked after Stuart posted an identical question in Tech
