How many miles before you need to changing timing belt on a Astra G SRI?

All the cars I%26#039;ve owned but not an Astra, the guideline was 60,000, but I changed them around 40,000 to be safe. An auto parts store can tell you that most timing belts are around this range. Sorry if it wasn%26#039;t the exact precise answer, but some food for thought. Chow|||around 80k for all cars, it will either need tightening or replacing!|||Typically on any auto it is 75000 mi.


If a car is kept in a very clean enviorment and you tighten the belt you could get 100,000 mi out if it but do not wait any longer becuase you certainly do not want to wait till it breaks. That will cause some serious internal problems to include bent rods and valves!|||About 20,000 mile|||its 60000 miles but i recomend you change the tensioner as thats usually the first to got destroying the engine.....they will run to high miles without the belt being changed but for about 60 quid its a small price to pay for peace of mind|||on vauxhalls its best to have done it by 60000 at the most. also worth doing cylinder head gasket about that mileage too|||About every 40 thousand miles|||if your not sure when it was last done then i%26#039;d change it just to be on the safe side.in the long run it%26#039;ll be cheaper to replace a belt than the engine.





good luck|||Read your owner%26#039;s manual; it should tell you everything you need to know about maintaining your car.|||I%26#039;m pretty well sure its 40,000 any way don%26#039;t press your luck get it done say at 35/45 its better than your engine seizing up|||up to 1996 40,000 miles


from 97 80.000 miles|||Hi there you dont say which engine that is fitted to the car however as an experianced mechanic and master technician i would reccomend you change the belt every 30,000 miles also its worth noting that there was a recall on certain vauxhalls to change the tensioner and the idler wheels as well, you can buy a kit which costs 拢100, that might sound expensive but then how much is that compared to a new engine, i have owned several vauxhalls and as soon as i have bought them i have changed the belt, the idlers and the tensioner (especially on the ecotec engines) then after 30k i channge the belt only
