The Volkswagen Golf MK4 GTI 1.8 non-turbo does not have a safe engine in the event of cambelt failure. If the cambelt snaps, it will cause the valves to hit the pistons, resulting in severe engine damage. It is therefore important to ensure that the cambelt is replaced at the recommended intervals.
