When to change Mazda3's timing belt?
When should I change the timing belt of a 2012 Madza 3 Sport diesel engine
Our answer:
Hi Orla,
That car's timing belt needs to be changed every 200,000km or every 10 years, whichever comes first. That's assuming you mean the 1.6-litre diesel, as the 2.2-litre diesel uses a timing belt.
