Opel Astra 1.6 8V 1999 maintainance info pls!

Viesti Kirjoittaja lala »

Hi guys, I have an Opel Astra 1.6l, 8V from 1999. Now I'm getting close to 120000Km (most of them in FInland :p) and I need to know what exactly do I have to change or what maintenance should I make for my Astra?
I'm know there's the issue of time belt or transmission belt or time chain or something like that, I just don't know which one I have and when should I change it.
When I bought it they also said something about needing to have a full maintenance at 120000Km. Is that for real?
Does any of you know a bit about these things and would be so nice and help me out with some basic information on how should I take care of my car :p ?!
So, if you could tell me first what kind of belt/chain does my car have and when should I change it. Also what other maintenance do I need to take care of when reaching 120000Km?
Thx !!!

Yep,full service at 120 000 and belt.
Since you have 8v,belt change is cheap,even at official Opel-service(metroauto etc.)
You should have small servicecoupon list at lid of glovecompartment,
that should tell you what and when.
