When is the timing belt due on a 2002/2003 TT 1.8T 225? And how much can it cost?

 

I was told every 60 000 to be safe, but dont let it go more than 100 000, dont take it to the dealer, i was quoted 1800! my mechanic tole me 550. and he's good. I couldnt find any audi dealership with my service records so i thought i would do my timing belt to be safe. he called his friend at audi and they had all the records. and it was done! so on top of saving 1250, i didnt need it done! how bout them apples!

 

Sorry if I missed something but is 60,000 miles or Kms??

Thanks,

 

miles, works out to bout 100 000kms wouldnt go much more than that.

 

I just this morning got all the parts for the job from FCP Groton in Connecticut (he's on Ebay). box contains: 1-serpentine belt (Contitech, made in germany),2 seals, 1-T-Belt (same make), tensionner,tensionner roller,gasket,water pump (metal), thermostat,thermostat cover, all delivered to my front door for 285.$ in Canada!!

 

Very good price! so doing a search for FCP Groton on ebay, we should be able to find this guy?
