Does my Skoda have a timing belt?
I have a Skoda Octavia 1.2 Tsi turbo petrol. Does it have a timing belt and if so when should it be changed? Regards & thanks.
Our answer:
Hi Ian,
Assuming it’s the current model Octavia, then it should have a chain, not a belt, so theoretically doesn’t need changing. It’s a good idea to have it regularly inspected, though.
