Hi guys,

Im buying a Seat Ibiza 1.9 TDi in about a week, its done 70000 odd miles and is a R plate (97).
Theres no record of a new cam belt, at what mileage should you change it?
And whats the chances its already been changed?

Thanks
Jade

Take the cover off and check the condition of it first. Unless the car has been stood for years, in the day to day world, people just tend to do it on milage.
