Belt or chain in this Octavia 1.5?
Gm18yho Skoda Octavia 1.5 tsi. Does this have timing belt or chain ? Does it need replacing at 58000 miles
Our answer:
Hi Steve,
This engine has a timing belt, but it is a long-life belt with no set replacement schedule. If in doubt, have it checked by a Skoda dealer.
