    Confused about timing belt interval

    I have a 2012 125 TDI Passat and I've been reading on here that timing belts are due every 105k, yet my service manual says every 180k.

    What's the go?

    Cheers

    Timing belt is due every 105k or every 7 years for Australia.

    Welp.. its well overdue. I'm at 100k now and 9 years of use. It'll have to hold out another 4 months and 5,000km.

    Can't understand why the service manual that came with it says double that amount of KM though. o_O
