Hi Guys. Can you tell me if my Q3 1.4 petrol TFSI will be cam chain or rubber belt ? It has covered 18500 miles.

Hi, What year is it ? - I believe early ones had a chain, but later ones had a belt

Hi It is September 2017 registered ( 67 plate )

It could have been built earlier on in 2017. The VIN number will tell you the build date. Alternatively, ask your dealer nicely and they will tell you if it is a chain or a belt. If you have a belt then miles does not matter but it should be changed every 5 years as the rubber compound deteriorates over time.

I am pretty sure it is a belt for the 2017 models

Thanks for the info.
