Does our Audi have a timing belt?

Hi We have an Audi A1 1.6TDI 2012. Does it have a timing chain or belt and when should it be changed. Many Thanks

Our answer:

Hi Peter,

The 1.6 TDI first-generation Audi A1 has a timing belt, regardless of which of the two available power outputs. Audi recommends a change ever 210,000 kilometres regardless of time.
