Just went into Sytner VW to ask about my service history and they said that the cambelt needs "checking" at 5 years or 60,000 miles .
As my car is only 4.5 years old and covered 40,000 miles they said that this time next year would be fine
I've mailed VW customer services to get their official recommendation but havent got a response yet.
Got a response form VW re cambelt & the plaques please see below:-
Good Afternoon ,
With regard to the cambelt changes, Volkswagen recommends every 60,000 miles or every 4 years, whichever occurs first. The Golf Edition 30 does have a plaque that you can apply for, to do this you will need to call us on the number below and we can take the necessary details and send the plaque through.
Kind Regards,
