Belt or chain on a 2012 Astra 1.6?
Astra 62 plate diesel 1.6 chain or belt 150000mls does it need changing
Our answer:
Hi Brian,
That engine uses a timing chain, not a belt, and it does not have a set replacement schedule. Hence, unless a mechanic has told you there's an issue with it, there should be no need to look into changing it.
