Belt or chain on a 2017 Audi A3?
Hiya, thinking of buying a 2017 Audi a3 1.6tdi with 100,00km on the clock. Just wondering if it has a belt or chain and when is it to be changed? Thanks.
Our answer:
Hi Stacey,
That engine has a timing belt, which should be changed every 210,000km regardless of time.
