When to change the belt in an Audi A3?
Timing belt. I'm sure you're asked this all the time. Considering an Audi A3 tdi 1.6. Around 2011 probably for my price range. What mileage should I expect or need the timing belt to be replaced?
Our answer:
Hi Robbie,
The recommended interval for that engine is every five years, assuming average mileage so it should have had a change by now, basically.
