When to change my Mazda3's belt?
When should I change the timing belt of a 2012 Madza 3 Saloon executive model 1.6lts engine?
Our answer:
HI Bikash,
The 1.6 petrol engine uses a timing chain, not a belt, but the 1.6 diesel has a belt. It must be changed at least every 200,000km or 10 years, whichever comes first.
