Call Independent tuning (in Toronto).. amazing shop, amazing people, honest and skilled. 416 285 4206. Mark will give you a quote.

Also,, if your car has upward of 80000 kms, you might want to look at having the intake valves cleaned ( I just did mine, made a huge difference,, resotred the original power and the stumble is gone) , replace the highpressure fuel pump piston cap (they wear out then break throuch.. 60$ now saves you 1800 later),

Thanks for the advice , I will have to get that done as well. I am at 124k right now when do you think I should take care of the timing belt and water pump ?

canadianbrand

mines a 2006 also.. at 124k,, you're well over due for the timing belt. as for the water pump,, i don't know, but of course its cheaper to do it all at once.

Audi of mississauga told me the timing belt is due at 168k ?????

canadianbrand

i don't know.. independent tuning did the valves and intake flaps. made a world of difference.

Second on IT, you won't be dissapointed.

AoM said 168k for a timing belt? I'd like to know who said that.

Can you gimme an estimate as to how much this would cost, and length of time? I just purchased the fuel pump cam follower and definitely want to replace mine. I'm currently at 103000 km. I want to have my intake valves cleaned asap...

Thanks..

I just called Audi Dealership and they told me I can change the timing belt and water pump at 145k...So I am going with that for now ....
