Morning,

When is the Timing Belt/Chain due to be changed on a 95 A6? I cant find it anywhere in the manual or on AllData

Thx!

 

approx every 37k in the UK depending on service history so if you have none then get it done

edit: its a timing belt

 

Every 37k miles??? Wow most cars are 90-100k miles

Are you sure?

 

you don't say what engine size but that's for the 2.8, this time interval was introduced by many dealers due to failure and used as a safety factor or a dealer rip off but was sorted by Gates who make the belts and tensioners, the dealers don't want you to know that because you think you need it done 3 times before the specified times so what a cash booster to Audi

 

I just called the stealer (dealer) and they said 75k miles and they want $1200???

OUCH!

 

what engine size??

Sorry!

The 2.8l

Thats not too shabby, it was $1600 on my old Accord. Most German cars have lower recommended mileage for timing belt change. Most Porche are in the 30k range too.

 

According to the Audi Service Schedule it's 90k or 4 years (whichever comes first).
Save some money and read this www.12v.org/maintenance/repairs/tbelt.php

avant80@2.6 can you tell me where to download that software on that jpg image above. It cover's the abc engine just what I'm looking for 94-97. I have tried google without any luck and the only cd i can find is for year 98-2004.
Thanks.
