Alan_Clay Ayeup all, A newbie based in Stoke, just bought a 07 plate Vectra with a full service history and high mileage (just gone over 100k) it has had a replacement fuel filter on 94k, however what should I be worried about now! timing / cam belt etc?
Matt Hello Alan, welcome to the site. The service interval on the chain is 10 years or 100,000 miles, so it's probably worth changing it to be on the safe side if you don't know if it's already been done.

Matt, thanks for the info, I will check the invoices that came with the car, any idea of approx cost for the job? Regards

vocky Hello and welcome to the site (y) As above, both chain kits need replacing after 100k :rolleyes:
