The cambelt on a Vauxhall Combo 1.7 DI van should be changed every 10 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. This is because the cambelt is made of rubber, and over time, rubber degrades and becomes brittle. This can cause the cambelt to snap, which can cause serious engine damage.
Here are some signs that your cambelt may need to be changed:
* The cambelt is cracked or frayed.
* The cambelt is loose.
* The cambelt is making a noise.
If you notice any of these signs, you should have your cambelt inspected by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.
Changing the cambelt on a Vauxhall Combo 1.7 DI van is a relatively simple job, but it does require some mechanical knowledge and tools. If you are not confident in your ability to change the cambelt yourself, you should have it done by a qualified mechanic.

1. Remove the engine cover.

5. Install the new cambelt.
