Hi everyone, been looking on this site for a while and the help has been huge with issues I've faced after buying my first insignia. I was looking for a bit of advice on timing belt. I have attached two pictures of the timing belt and was wondering what you guys think to the belt.
I bought the insignia sports tourer CDTI SRI 160hp 2.0 second hand and the guy told me he had put a new timing belt on before sale. Knowing this person I'm not sure if he means brand new or from a breaker car. This would have been put on around 6 - 9 months ago if it is 'new'
I had a look and can see what looks like cracks between the teeth hut the writing is still very visible and hardly worn. Just wondering if this is typical for a belt of around 10,000 miles since been put on? Or do you think its pretty worn and needs replacing ASAP?
Thanks in advance, if you need clearer pictures I can post some tomorrow.
Cheers
