I'm at about 55,000 miles. Is this about the time to have the timing belt replaced? Also would you recommend I get the oil changed from the bog standard stuff to a synthetic or hybrid, or will it make no difference for this 8v? TIA
Great car btw!!
Yes I would do the belt soon. As for going synthetic, why? It's been running so well with old dino oil so why change especially if you do oil changes every 3,000 or so miles.
The biggest advantage of synthetic oil in my opinion is longer change intervals. Porsche for example says 15,000Miles or once per year... unless changed from 2000.
