Hi Danial
Many thanks for reply. the car is petrol, reg january 2009. its the 85 hp 1.4 16v. 60,ooo kilometres which is about 35000 miles.
if i contact skoda with the chasis no do you think i can get an answer.
the greek garage says timing chain, but i know they will tell you anything to get a sale.

Many years ago timing chains used to last the life of the car but that was because the average car ended up in the scrap yard at about 60,000 miles, now they can do several hundred thousand, sadly chains need changing as well.
