As i have lost my Handbook for the vts, Just wondering how often a mk1 vts should be serviced, and also what mileage is the Timing Belt due to be changed?

Cheers

72k for the cambelt

Oil+ filter every 9-10k
spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter, brake fluid, auxillary drive belt replacement every 40k
Coolant renewal 80k

(from the haynes manual, and my service book)

ah brilliant :) on 109k at the moment, so i got at least another 30k for the cambelt to be done, Should really do oil and filter, and then renew coolant when i get round to replacing the radiator :)

Thankyou Very much 04jtb

In the book, the page for 108k is everything apart from the cambelt and coolant :y:

I personally do oil and filter every 6000 miles on all my cars as it helps to lengthen engine life considerably

Hey Mike, if you need anything done then give me a shout! I'm only over in Rusper and have some very competitive rates!
