    I know that you must change them after 5 years period as well. Regardless the mileage done.
    I know that maybe the cambelt is OK or the water pump is OK but why take the risk? I mean we spend so much money on these cars, so many things go wrong with them, why take the risk for such an inexpensive operation?

      This was discovered on my donor Audi 90 20v after I drove it home in 2008 from London via France, Belgium, Holland, Germany and Denmark. I guess it was the original 115.000 miles belt from 1991
