Octavia Mk2 Engine Info

Cambelts Time Intervals

Skoda UK specify that cambelts should be changed every 4 or 5 years depending on the engine type regardless of
mileage. Cambelt guidance from VAG is subject to change and you should check the exact specifics for your car with
your dealer or Skoda UK customer services. The distance intervals in the following tables are what I understand to be
the intervals specified by the factory.

If your engine's water pump is driven by the cambelt it is a false economy not to change it when changing the cambelt.

For what it's worth I wouldn't feel comfortable leaving the cambelt some of the mileage intervals shown in the tables
below, but that's just me.

Please Note the following in the tables:

MY = Model Year
QG0, QG1, QG2 = VW PR option codes stating what the service regime was that the car came set with from the factory.
See the option code sticker on your manual or in your boot to the top left of the spare wheel well under the carpet. Note -
this setting may well have been changed according to owner requirements.

* Skoda specify that the cambelt on these engines should first be checked at 90,000 Km / 55,923 miles and then every 30,000 Km /
18,641 miles after that with replacement when necessary based on the inspection. The mileage interval I have shown here is the
general consensus I have found across various sources.
