Find out if your car has a timing belt, or a chain. If it's a chain, it should last the lifetime of the engine. Skoda (VW group) do have some engines with timing chains. My 1997 Felicia 1.3 had one.
If it's a belt, as others have said, it must be changed at the correct intervals.0 -

Thanks, I'll ask the garage when it goes in next week.
Really appreciate all the help.0
