The 2000 VW Beetle comes with a timing belt rather than a timing chain. Because of the belt it is going to require some maintenance on Your part but it shouldn't need to be replaced very often. The rule is typically about every 80,000 to 100,000 miles before You'll need a new belt. You should try to inspect it regularly though. Look at the rubber for signs of wearing down or tearing so You can get it changed before it breaks completely. If You wait until it's too late You won't be able to start Your engine and the broken belt can lead to additional damage to other components. -
