yes , belt.
when i got my car i rang vauxhall to check when belt change was needed they suprised me and said 100k miles.
didnt take any chances,had my local garage change mine at 85k miles.
i bought the belt kit myself from a website called vauxhall world parts.. very reasonable,and made by GATES,who are known worldwide for QUALITY.
hope this helps!
got mine done at about 80k - wouldn't chance it much longer than that!
When should a chain be done?
When it starts to rattle

thats handy will get my wifes crystal ball out shall I ....................
Not sure with petrols but DTI chains go on forever if you here it rattling then i would get it changed if not they are quite good but that's only my personal opinion
