We made it to 100k, timing belt needed and after a bit of a disagreement with the VW dealership, the OP/BM gets replaced as well.
Discussion on how much gets paid for parts when replaced depending on condition. You can hear more noise as time has gone by but nothing sudden or bad (and I have worked on diesel engines though no longer)
Has a chainless car been through a OP/BM change or inspection due to that shaft issue that plagued the chain driven one inside the module?
I know some are deleting it but VW is not going to do a repair that does that.
I recall there is some setting in the ECM that allows the engine to get same or better fuel economy. If that is correct, does anyone have it.
Will get the temperature gauge working again as well.
Have them pull the manifold and clean out?
Always regretted not being able to have Oilhammer or MoGulf do it.
