For the 8 valve I believe its 60,000 miles however would recommend it at 40,000 as mine was pretty ropey at 55,000. Does depend on usage so would always go at least every 3 years.

Typical cam belt change interval is 70,000 miles
when should I change the cam belt on a 2002 VW Passat 1.8S with 48000 on the clock
The cam belt drives the cam, keeping it in time. If the cam belt breaks, the engine not only will not run, but could be damaged. Make sure to change the belt at the recommended intervals.
80k miles
It has a cam belt.
It has a chain. No recommended replacement interval.
It should be changed at 80,000 miles or 128,747 km.
There is no timing belt. It is a chain driven cam and there is no change interval. They get changed when the engine is overhauled.
I have just paid £120 as they only guarentee the cam belt if they do the pistons at the same time

The recommended interval for changing the cam belt (timing belt) on a Renault Kangoo is typically every 5 years or 60,000-100,000 miles, whichever comes first. It is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines as failing to replace the cam belt at the recommended intervals can result in serious engine damage if the belt breaks. Regular maintenance and inspections can help ensure the longevity and performance of your vehicle.
