When to change a 2013 Astra's belt?

Just wondering when the cambelt is due for change in a 2013 Valar Astra 2.0 CDTi Sports tourer (it's now at approx 100,000 km . Online forums seem to give considerable differing opinions.

Our answer:

Hi Mark,

It appears to vary depending on the precise engine. The belt in the 165hp (2011-2015) unit, for example, must be changed every 150,000km or six years (whichever comes first). That applies to the 131hp one as well. However, the belt in the 190hp version (2010-2013) should be done every 120,000km or six years.
