I have 147XXX miles, person I bought the car from was like a foreign young lady, she lived in the hood its a 98 A6 no problems, i copped it for 3g's so I could not resist!

Anyways, I'm assuming with mileage that high that it was changed.
She's a DUCK but I remember he saying, "I changed the waterpump and timing belt recently."

I doubt she would even know what that is unless she got it done.

Thanks dude!

 

if u have a friend who is a mechanic, or know one who wont screw u, u can always just bring the car to them, ask to take a quick look and see if its worn and if u need a new one or not, now, why i say u want to bring it to a friend or 1 u trust, is bc u will find a mechanic who will say, yes u need it, even if u dont just to make the extra cash, and timing belts are not cheap on these cars lol

 

hopefully it was her 2nd time changing it...

cuz if any of those things fail you're done for

 

can i take my car to my mechanic and he can tell by just lookin at the belt if its about to go or not ... i am going to get it changed in about 2k only have 78k on the car but if i can squeeze another 5k outta it id be happy
