    Anyone know what the timing belt intervals are...I just hit 30k miles and I have a niggling feeling I heard the interval is low for these engines.

    I think it's 40k miles. Surely it would have to be done once the car hit 6 years old though?

    The interval is 40K miles. I'm not sure if there's a calendar interval. Normally you have to buy a kit which includes the water pump and pullies for the belt. The kit is €200 ish.
