Passat 2006 Tdi 1.9 Timing belt

golfnuts · 2009-07-29 12:33:38

Just a question lads, does the 2006 passat tdi 1.9 have a timing belt or chain that needs to be changed and if so at what sort of mileage should it be done at. Cheers.

About 4 years 60k miles AFAIK, whichever comes first

Could anyone give an estimate of the cost of changing one of these.

If you're in Cork county Barr, I see newmarket motors had a "special offer" in the paper a few weeks ago - €495 i think it was for the 1.9 TDI so not sure how special that is.

VW recommend every 128,000kms, or five years.

Would 400-500e be a fair price to get that and the water pump done?
