Should I replace my Vauxhall Astra's timing belt?

My Vauxhall Astra has over 100,000 miles on it and I'm wondering if I should replace the timing belt. Is it necessary and if so, when should I do it?

Yes, it's a good idea to replace the timing belt on your Vauxhall Astra once you reach 100,000 miles.

If your car is well-maintained and you don't drive it too often, you may be able to push the timing belt replacement to 120,000 miles.

Don't wait until the belt breaks before getting it replaced. It can cause expensive damage to your engine.

You should also check the water pump and tensioner when replacing the timing belt, as they often wear out around the same time.
