symptoms before timing belt failure??
 

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum and hope to get lots of info from here! I just bought a 2010 a4 with 180000 kms on it. It's in great shape but I'm a little worried about whether or not to get the timing belt replaced. I have basic service records from the dealer in London, Ontario, but I don't see any details regarding the timing belt. Is there any symptoms that precede the failure of the belt? I am planning on purchasing some sort of vag code reader and the service manual(s). One last question for now, has anyone come up with a solution to the burnt out led tailights? I have done a few internet searches, but if this topic has been over discussed already then excuse my lazyness!!! Thanks for your help in advance and look forward to all the help this forum will give me! By the way, I am around the Sarnia Ontario area and just bought a 2010 a4 s-line 2.0T quattro, 6 speed. Love the car!!!!!

Hi if I were you I would have the TB change right the way. It's long overdue. TB s/b change at 160k.
Use only OE or OEM parts never aftermarket ones. The best to get is the Continental Pro Series or Continental Pro Series Plus TB kit
