TDI auto timing belt question.
Rob 2 March 2005 06:00:32
	I'm looking at a used 2001 Jetta TDI auto with about 69k miles on it and was wondering about the timing belt eminence on it (owner said it has never been changed). Called one dealer and the guy said he was thinking that all 2000 and above Jetta's auto's 85k before it needs changing, but have read here that's it's 40k when a auto needs changing, but the guy at the VW dealer ship did say he's new to VW and will double check. Anybody with an TDI auto know for sure. Thanks.

	99% sure the 2000's were still 40k or 60K depending on if it's a auto or standard.

	Does it really go down in the spring? I never noticed last year (which was my first winter with my TDI) I thought diesel sort of went with the price of oil, as thru the summer the price of diesel kept going up and up as oil prices did. 79.9cents for Sunoco Gold diesel in Brampton Ont.

Diesel fuel is very similar to (but much cleaner than) home heating fuel. I've noticed that diesel prices go up in the late fall, and down in the spring. It's time. -- Remove preceding and trailing X from username for replies (Sorry, but I'm SICK of spam...)

	You can get Sunoco "Diesel" for 77.9 here too.... just not at the station I go to, I don't use the standard stuff anyways, Gold has got to be better... or so I am told.

For 2001, the specification for TDI engines in the US is that the timing belt should be changed every 60,000 miles for manual transmission, and every 40,000 miles for automatic transmission. A newer type timing belt and tensioner began to be used in 2002 (actually late 2001) to give longer change intervals (and it may be installed on earlier engines). http://forums.tdiclub.com may be helpful. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Timothy J.

	Its 40 to 60000 miles. I have a standard trans and changed it at 100,000 miles and it looked new.
