Jonathon1994 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Good evening ladies and gents, Looking for some advise regarding my A3 I bought last June. It has come to my attention that the timing belt should have been changed last June when I bought the car but was never done. It was bought from a Ford dealer so I would expect them to notice that it needed changing... After some research, the 1.9 BXE engines are suppose to have the belt changed every 5 years/ 80,000 miles. The car was 5 years old while on the forecourt (First registered on 31/5/2009) so I would like them to replace it, especially as my 3 year guarantee will be void if I change it myself which is obviously a lot cheaper for me. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? I know I should have checked if it had been done but I thought that they would do it as part of their service before I bought it. Thanks in advance, Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siena547 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 My local Audi garage told me it needs changing either 120,000 miles or 5 years (whichever comes first) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
