Should I replace my Sharan's timing belt?
Dear Carzone, I have a VW Sharan 1.4 tsi automatic. The car has 76000 miles on the clock. Should I replace the time belt> Thank you. Louis
Our answer:
Hi Louis,
That's a long-life belt. Volkswagen recommends checking its condition at 240,000km and then every 30,000km after that until it's deemed necessary to change it. It would be best to have an experienced mechanic carry out this check.
