I thought the tdci is a 2 litre or a 2.2 litre, rather than 1.8

Nope.
Mk 4's have a 1.8 diesel option, using the Lynx engine, and it does have a cam belt.
That brings the diesel engine options to eight; 1.6. 1.8, 2.0, and 2.2, in various power ratings!

aaaargh is that the one that has a chain drive pump and a belt to the cam (from the pump) ? I have only come across that lump in Focuses and in those the replacement interval has been lowered to 8 years max or 100k So if that is what the OP has then he should look at getting it done fairly soon.

I believe so.
The OP's car must be '07 on, so unless due on mileage he's OK for a bit.

ah, I had read 2004 somewhere, must be a different thread. I can't keep up with calling them by model numbers, it is too confusing.
Thanks all
The mk3 2.0 tdci has a chain
the new Mk4 from what I have read online is indeed a belt
cheers for the info
the cars done 58k so ok for a while but a job for the nearish future
thanks again
