I have a 2003 Jetta TDI with 198K miles and no maintenance history. Reading this forum tells me I need to change the timing belt soon as I have no idea when it was ever changed. I'm pretty capable however I do not have access to VCDS at this point which brings on my question:
If the car seesm to run pretty well (this is my first TDI so I have no comparison) and I change the timing belt, do I need to adjust the fuel timing with the new belt? I realize that I would want to have this checked somewhat soon if nothing else to ensure efficiency however I'd rather not delay the belt change until I get VCDS and an understanding on how to use it.
Thoughts?
Thank you everyone!
