Common Reasons for Replacement

Installation Notes

Verify engine code and vehicle application before installation, especially on 2005-2009 Audi A4 and A4 Quattro models and other listed Volkswagen applications. Follow factory timing procedures, align timing marks carefully, and replace all related timing components during service. Because this kit is specified without timing marks, use the correct service tools and OEM repair information for belt alignment and tensioning.
