Car (2.0 TDI Leon ST) is five years old in November. Belts used to be (and still are in the workshop manual) an inspection, with replacement at 120,000miles.
However a few years ago there was a switch to a five year time limit on them, with no mention of mileage.
Dealer is £420 for timing belt with +£170 for the waterpump. Five year warranty on this work, although the car will probably be changed within the next year for other reasons. A couple of independents in Glasgow have been the same ballpark figure.
I have no issue getting the work done- I know the change of it going bang is very slim but the repercussions are pretty expensive!
Is the waterpump worth doing at this time? I understand its to save future labour but there seems to be a lot of mixed information on this, so hoping there a few clued up forum users!
