    120k doesn't sound right at all - what machine is it?

    2.0T should be eight yrs or 110K according to Audi just most people here replaced them at around 90K. So it is all-time to get it done, water pump too.

    anyone here with 120k miles on original timing belt?

    My concluding b7 didn't have the timing belt done until 125k

    Edit: I didn't purchase it until around 120k. No tape of it being done, I did for slice of mind. Yous should get yours replaced

    Service interval for timing belt and components on a 2.0t is 75k. Sounds like a lot of you guys have been really lucky waiting until 120k.

    Pretty sure the interval is 110k, equally 80sGuy has mentioned. That's what listed for me and by my shop. I did it at 90k with no bug.

    I bought my A4 in August and I recently took a look at the chugalug and it looked pretty practiced simply I'm unaware if it has been changed before, the guy said information technology was changed but I never verified it since I plan on changing it this wintertime anyways. 133k

    It's comical to come across people stroll in to offer horrible advice (60k miles??). 80s guy is spot on. My understanding has been originally Audi set the timing chugalug service at 90k, but due to some regulations in CA that does non permit a new car to be sold that would require major scheduled maintenance before 100k, Audi inverse the interval to 110k. I would likewise recommend servicing your t-stat at the aforementioned time. If you are doing it yourself, it will save you a little time, and if you are paying, information technology should salvage some coin. I changed mine at 90k and then took the components to an Indy store for their opinion of the wear. Their stance was the replacement wasn't completely necessary based on my parts, only information technology's peace of listen.

    Check the under side of the hood on the driver'due south side. If it was replaced, there should be an update to detail the date and mileage of the change.

    Here's the thing. You don't salvage coin past waiting. It's not like you lot're going to do a T-belt 10 times over the life of your car and if you stretch information technology merely a flake maybe y'all simply practise nine. If you try to get some other 5K miles out of a T-chugalug, you lot're going to change it the same number of times while you ain the car.

    I but changed mine because the original chugalug was eight years old. The car but has 58k miles but I didn't trust a rubber chugalug that had gone through high and low temperature extremes for eight years. My communication would be to modify yours. There's no fashion I'd feel comfy driving with an erstwhile belt that had 120k miles on it. If that belt breaks you'll need a new engine.

    I'chiliad at 10yrs and 179k miles on mine. Borrowed fourth dimension, yea, yea, I know. I inspect at each oil modify with no signs of excessive wear currently. Car has seen a meaning corporeality of highway (low rev) miles.

    I don't recommend my path, and am not exceptionally proud of putting it off this long. Is what it is though.

    The status of the belt will deteriorate in miliseconds if 1 of the tensioner or idler pulleys gives out. And you tin't test those with the belt on.

    Yeah Audis manual says its good till 110k but like most people have found that is not very wise because many have gone before that. I took my car to Audi when it had only nether 90k and they told me the timing belt needed to be replaced asap. I would recommend listening to the Audi techs and not the Audi manual.

    Did mine this year at 110K miles as proscribed in my owners manual. Do it 5K miles less won't hurt, but I assume Audi equally almost manufacturers exercise have sufficient durability testing in hand that they used to determine that 110K is the number, knowing some might change information technology a bit sooner or later.

    Agreed. Same goes for a brand new belt too.

    Changing at recommended intervals (manual, or service tech driven) is the safest/best way.

    Exactly...These people are crazy

    Guyz...I think the actual interval is 176k miles!111!!!1!!!

    In all seriousness, Audi Canada recommends all B7 owners get their beginning timing belt modify done at 120,000 KM (75k miles every bit someone correctly previously mentioned) and that is in line with other manufacturers who also use a rubber timing chugalug vs chain...Just common knowledge.

    And in places wither harsher climates, its recommended to change it sooner.

    Changed mine at 85k miles along with all the associated parts. Had a suspicion on thermostat starting to stick open. Didn't want to risk going through winter on the onetime belt, just took a 24-hour interval to change. I experience, somewhen I had to change it anyway. I don't plan on keeping the machine till the next timing belt modify, so its i fourth dimension modify for me. Non worth waiting on the ticking time bomb. Just buy all the parts and select a skillful weather weekend to change it yourself. Not so hard at all. For me it was the first fourth dimension irresolute timing belt on any automobile, so it seemed overwhelming. Merely boy it was piece of cake. Its easier than changing brakes if y'all take right tools. Even with 4 out of vi bolts on the pulley stripped, it was a piece of cake to do the belts. Only matter that stumped me was the stupid 12 point/triple star spiral on the thermostat hard piping.
    Necessary tools:
    triple foursquare metric socket set up/$.25.
    12mm 12 signal socket to bang in to the bolts (in example you strip the caster bolts).
    metric hex socket set/bits.
    And simply the regular metric sockets, wrenches, ratchets, breaker bar.

    Audi has since revised that in 2008. Here's the chart, belt nautical chart for ii.0T is highlighted in red towards the bottom.

    110 at most. I did my B7 at 80k because when it goes boom, you're gonna accept a bad time.

    Warmer climates contribute to premature failures likewise, fyi.

    I now run across the 2008 revision but they can revise information technology all they desire :)

    Common knowledge in regards to safety timing belts is to change them at 75k miles or five years...Which ever comes first....Regardless of what 1 manufacturer or another tells yous

    Remember, they take an incentive to tell you a higher number...When your engine explodes because you listened to them, you are conveniently out of the warranty menses so they brand a lot of money......Lifetime forever fluids? Sounds expert Audi!!!!

    ^^I'm sure they merely didn't revised this out of the blue, and they certainly wouldn't exercise it so if your engine breaks they'll make depository financial institution if that's what you think, so I'd say LAWSUIT! The chugalug components made today are a lot different and much stronger than 2 decades ago. Not saying we can all go and bulldoze the shyte out of it till 110K (equally many have w/o issues) and beyond. The days of 3000K oil changes and 12,000 miles spark plug replacements are besides history, only some people would all the same do it because they recall information technology's common sense. I wouldn't waste my money. Simply 85-90K sounds about correct for the belts.

    Simply adage I've heard has been 90k. It'due south what I've done in all my cars that I've needed to do it in. Nix about 75k or 110k.

    Why is the Thermostat included with a timing belt kit?

    One does non have to remove the thermostat to get to the timing belt, and they accept seemingly piddling interdependancy, beyond both have a connection to the cooling system. Aside from they both are recommended replacements at the aforementioned interval?!?!

    The thermostat tends to be ready for replacement past the fourth dimension the timing belt is due, and you won't lose any coolant since it'south already drained to pull the front. It's a 'may as well while we're in there' kind of thing.

    I wouldn't await if I were you. I personally know from experience because I pushed mine on my B6 to the signal the belt but happened to interruption off a couple teeth in my driveway idling which trashed the caput.

    Ultimately the option is upwards to y'all. Replacing a head/engine considering of neglect is never a fun experience for your wallet.

    Very true. Its e'er the owners choice. If you are feeling lucky go alee and look until 110-120k you lot could very well accept no problems. For the ones who aren't so lucky I'll hopefully see your car on craigslist or somewhere and buy it for cheap and flip it for a great profit because there is bent valves and damaged pistons. (probably 75% or more of the vw/audi's I purchase to ready and sell are because of engine harm because of timing chugalug failure)
