T5POL Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 It has been previously mentioned/discussed that it should be done at 40k miles so that would make the belt change around 65k km. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marco-polo Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 I can vouch for this!I changed my belt at 50,000 miles & it saved me a real big headache.The belt had the biggest chunks missing & was worn & cracked almost everywhere! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whyme Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 While it's the subject, i've got a quick question...I asked the local garage to check the condition of the belt on mine and they said if I wanted it checked it's a right hassle and I might as well get it changed. Is this true or were they trying to mug me off? Could I check it myself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manc01 Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 While it's the subject, i've got a quick question...I asked the local garage to check the condition of the belt on mine and they said if I wanted it checked it's a right hassle and I might as well get it changed. Is this true or were they trying to mug me off? Could I check it myself?i think its true, as mostly with cambelt job most of it is labour getting to it, and if they get to belt and remove to check it, mite as well change it. just had mine done 86k miles, bought it a week ago, guy said it had been changed but no receipt.. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crb1011 Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 cambelt change on the Lupo is every 4 years had mine done this year and it was two years overdue but saying that I have only done 13k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beach Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 (edited) i thought checking it is a 5 minute job? on the manual it says just unscrew/unclip the cover at side of the engine and can see it? unless thats another belt i'm thinking of. i'm going to check it out anyway as i want to change mine at 60k miles. mines done 44000 now.
