For a Vauxhall Astra 57 plate, it's generally recommended to change the cam belt every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, or every 5 to 7 years, depending on the engine type. However, always refer to the owner’s manual or consult with a qualified mechanic for specific recommendations based on driving conditions and vehicle use. Regular checks are essential to avoid potential engine damage.
How often do you need to change the cam belt on an Astre 1.6 club 2000 plate
It should be done every 40,000 miles this is what the main and local dealer has told me.

every 100k mate
It has a belt
it should be changed after 60000 miles
if its the vauxhall 2.0 dte, the answer is NEVER ...the engine has a chain, not a belt!
Does a vauuxhall aastra 1.4 petrol turbo have a cam belt or is it chain driven
Belt :)
how long would it take to change a timing chain on a vauxhall zafira 54 plate.
It has a chain
No. On the Vauxhall Astra 1.4 engine the water. pump is driven by the cam belt. In fact the cam belt is adjusted by twisting the pump body and tightening the three retaining nuts.
