So here is the dillema...we have all upgraded to our 100K TB parts...but some have manual trans. and others have autos...
How do we figure out the change interval?
I have been on the wonderful VW maintenance schedule site...LOL From what I read there, the belt needs to be changed every 40K, but the tensioner needs to be changed every 20K... The site doesn't differentiate between manual and auto...
Also, what is the extra stress that an auto puts on the belt/pulleys that make the interval shorter?
Since the engines are unchanged 99.5-03, can I get some feedback on the TB CI for the following sets:
Running the "100K" full kit on:
99.5-03 auto trans = ???
99.5-03 manual = 100K
Sorry, as I am ending this I think I am probably not being very clear...head cold...
I think what I am asking is what the TB CI should be for a 99.5-03 w/ auto trans if you use the 100K kit... Yes, that is what I am asking...sniffle...
