Timing chain on a 132 Golf?

Timing chain on a 132 Golf?

When do you get timing chain done on a 132 golf 1.6l diesel? How many km?

Our answer:

Hi Janet,

I'm assuming this is the Golf VI, which ended production in 2013, but was still probably sold here as a new car into the 132 period. The 1.6 TDI diesel actually has a timing belt, not a chain, and it needs to be changed every 210,000km regardless of mileage on the clock.
