2000 a6 4.2 timing belt change question
Well, I'll be officially joining the Audi family as of this Friday when I go to pick up my new (to me) A6. Needless to say, I'm extremely anxious and excited for Friday to get here. I think I'm going to go ahead and change the timing belt/water pump/thermostat/pulleys and all that jazz from the getgo just so that I don't have to worry about it. Anyways, my question is, does anyone know where I can find a writeup on how to do all of this? The car is a 2000 and has the 4.2 in it, and so far I haven't been able to find anything.
Thanks for the anticipated help,
Mike

timing belts and the 60k service are a huge undertaking. they are possible to do by you self. But I would suggest having a knowledgeable shop do it for you. As there are spical tools that you will need and if you make a mistake you can do dammage to your motor.
I don't have a lot of money but I payed a local performance shop to do it for me. In the end it was worth it due to the fact that they forund several things wrong that I would have never known about or spotted
