It has a timing Belt.
All Vauxhall 2.2 petrol engines in Astra and Zafira have a chain. The Sintra and the Omega are belt driven as they were fitted with what was in effect a bored out version of the X20XEV which was belt driven.
If the timing belt on a 1.6 Astra breaks, it can damage the engine. It is more likely to damage the engine if it is a timing chain, though. A timing chain is made of metal and a timing belt is made of a heavy duty rubber.
it has a timing belt . replace at 10 years or 100,000 miles
Does a vauuxhall aastra 1.4 petrol turbo have a cam belt or is it chain driven
Astra 2.2's are chain driven instead of belt and are meant to last the life of the engine.However,there are reports of them snapping so I would get it looked at to make sure
