Product Details

Gates TCKWP306AM is a timing belt service kit built around the same core components used in Gates timing belt kits, with the addition of a water pump for a more complete repair. Gates notes that timing belt-driven water pumps should be replaced at the same time as the belt, and this kit follows that service approach for the Audi A4, Audi A4 Quattro, and Volkswagen Passat fitments listed below. The belt uses a black HSN and fiberglass cord construction with a curvilinear tooth profile, and the water pump includes a metal impeller for the specified applications.
