How many km do you change the timing belt?
Years 2012-2019

Answer

Obviously everything also depends on the use made of your vehicle; if in doubt, the instructions to follow in terms of years or mileage to change the timing belt are indicated in the maintenance booklet. After having traveled between 100,000 and 180,000 km or after 5 or 6 years of use of the vehicle, it must be replaced. On cars with a diesel engine, the times can be lengthened, waiting for the 180,000 km of mileage or 10 years of use of the vehicle.
