The car has done 117k miles now (yep it just keeps on going). I had my first change at about 65k miles. I can't find any information in the manual so thought i would ask here. Thanks!What mileage should a cam belt be changed on 1995 VW Polo?Every 60K miles So you are getting near that time. It is not saying it will fail, but you can pretty well be assured you will be safe if it is done at that time. It is VW recommendation. 60,000miles(or 100,000km)What mileage should a cam belt be changed on 1995 VW Polo?I agree with 100,000. I think many of the dealers try to get you to change just so they make some money. But you know what? When you bring it in for the change at 60,000 miles, many of them will never change the belt but charge you as if it was changed. Please ask for the old belt before they start working. I have seen so many people tell me that they had oil changes and filter changes only to point out to the person later on that the filters are the oringinals. A belt change takes a lot of time. And time means money for the garages. Some belts drive a water pump. They may charge you for a new pump too unless you tell them ahead of time, not to change it unless its leaking. And then ask for the old parts.What mileage should a cam belt be changed on 1995 VW Polo?60,000 miles or 4 years whichever comes 1st.What mileage should a cam belt be changed on 1995 VW Polo?
