Most timing belt (vs timing chain) cars need service at 60,000 miles.

If the belt fails, and your engine is the interference type, the valves will be

How long do vauxhall astra estate cambelt need changing?

Depends on engine and age of vehicle can be 4 years 6 years or 10 years. Ask your vauxhall dealer for a quote and they will advise the interval.But if you are not sure change it now! Vauxhall have had problems where belts went earlier than the interval. Because the cars are all out of warranty they squirmed and would not pay as they only ADVISE the mileage. For the sake of a £30 belt save the £2k engine!!

In a Vauxhall Vivaro van, the starter motor is typically located near the base of the engine, on the passenger side. It is mounted to the transmission bell housing, making it accessible from underneath the vehicle. To reach it, you may need to remove some components or shields, depending on the specific model year. Always consult the vehicle's service manual for precise details and instructions.
