1999 1.9 TDI Cambelt change interval? - rawkus
Hi all

Great forum by the way.

I have a LHD MK4 Tdi with 32k (low for it's age). I am just wondering when I should have the cambelt changed? I have had the car 2 years but I don't have much history before that so I assume it has never been done.

Also, is there anything else that should be checked?

many thanks

I think it is recomended that you change the cambelt every 4 years ( used to be 6)
also change the cabin air filter ( fairly easy) and the air filter VERY easy.
also have the brake fluid changed every 4 years.

Every 4 years / 40K - used to be 5 years 60k miles.

Reduced because of plastic tensioners breaking.
