Default second tb?

My b5 1.8t has a 184k on it. I'm the second owner and i know he changed the tb. Should I replace it again? I bought it at 127k. Let me know thanks.

oh yes, replace it again, you can tell by just looking at the belts from underneath if you remove the skid plate

well it's recommended to be replaced every 70K so if ya do the math... it should have been replaced at least 40k ago


and think o it this way, if you DIY it's $300 to save you thousands
