Couldn't decide if this should be HZ or not, if so please move.
Anyway, does anyone know what the cambelt change interval should be for the Corsa C (2004) 1.7 CDTI SRI should be? Vauxhall keep telling me different numbers every time i ask them . So far i've been told this.
60,000 miles / 10 years - Main dealer
65,000 miles / 10 years - service booklet in car
100,000 miles / 10 years - Vauxhall directly via email.
Any ideas? I'm up to 59,000 now and i want to know when i should be getting it done. ta.

I'd say 60k miles but that is on knowledge of older engines, I could be wrong though.
How much does it cost? And how much do you drive the car and how hard? Might be worth getting it done regardless of mileage.

The Y17DT is listed as 100,000 miles / 10 years in my book, which i guess is either the 1.7 DI or DTI, the Z17DTH (1.7 CDTI) does say 65,000 miles or 10 years. I've just heard so many conflicting reports on it i wonder if anyone knew for sure what it is or if it had changed from this?
