Cambelt Change
« on: March 06, 2013, 04:46:30 pm »
Hi guys quick question just wondering if anyone can answer it... Obviously for the mk5 its recommended you change your cambelt either after 4 years or at 60k....


My question is.... is this the same for a Mk6 GTI?

Cheers

Ah so if that's the case it'll be like 120k when it gets changed im guessing. Just trying to find out as much possible about the mk6 gti as I'm scouting for one for the old man :P

Thanks  :happy2:
