Hello
I am still having low RPM performance issues with my Allroad. See my other postings.
In desperation I took it to the local independent Audi centre. They have plugged it in and assure me it is not the MAF sensor etc.etc.
They claim the timing is out, and this is probably due to a "stretched or worn" timing belt. The have suggested a new on be fitted, but when pushed as to whether that would solve the problem they stood back a bit saying it was a stating point to work from.
The belt is still well within life according to the service book. 2 years left or 20,000 miles.
I know a little about these things, mainly that if the timing was out by a little the management unit would cope with it. Right?
I am really loathed to spend out on a timing belt job yet. What do you guys recon I should do next?
