How frequent should I change the timing belt on my Audi A2?

I recently bought a used Audi A2 and it has around 60,000 miles on it. I'm not sure when the timing belt was last changed, so I'm wondering how often it should be replaced and if I should do it now?

It is recommended to change the timing belt on your Audi A2 every 80,000 miles or 8 years, whichever comes first. If you are unsure about the previous replacement, it is better to err on the side of caution and replace it now.

As a general rule, it is better to replace the timing belt earlier rather than later. Failure to replace it on time can result in serious and expensive engine damage. I suggest scheduling a replacement with a trusted mechanic.

The interval for replacing the timing belt on your Audi A2 can vary depending on driving conditions and habits. If you frequently drive in stop-and-go traffic or use your car for towing, it is recommended to replace the belt at 60,000 miles. Otherwise, follow the recommended 80,000 mile interval.
