Technical 2.0 20v cambelt change recommendation

[sharkytaylor]

Hey guys ,

I've heard every 72,000 mls for a cambelt change .

Is this correct ?

Mine has done 101,000 mls and was last changed at 72,221
(around end 2005).

So would 144,000 mls sound ok to you guys or when would you recommend ?

Regards Jason

Book says 72K but many will tell you not to leave it so late. It's very risky to leave it till then. I think in general it's good to say every 50K

mine was done at 38k, but i'd suggest every 60k or 5years
