  • GTI cambelt change interval

    Can a GTI owner please check their service manual for the recommended cambelt change interval?

    I've heard conflicting info:
    120,000km/4 years whichever comes first, or
    120,000km no time interval.

    Many thanks

      I would really suspect it to be time based as well, as most cambelts are.

          I just went down to the carpark and checked. Its says to check/inspect at 90,000km and replace at 120,000km. No mention of time based replacement.
