Can you tell if this will have all the necessary parts? https://www.idparts.com/diesel-particulate-filter-oem-cbea-cjaa-1k0254708gx-1k0254706lx-p-4031.html#product_tabs

How about something like this? https://www.idparts.com/diesel-particulate-filter-oem-cbea-cjaa-1k0254708gx-1k0254706lx-p-4031.html#product_tabs

I would love to be able to do something like that. $3700 isn't going to work for me right now. Can you recommend a shop that can do that work, and maybe I can find the parts? I'm in NJ, but I'm willing to travel to have this done more cheaply.

Thank you, again. Maybe I will wait. I have a mechanic I mostly trust, but he can't get to it until I come back. I'll have to think about it. Yes, I'm prepared for the water pump.

Thank you very much for your insight. I'm planning a trip to Chicago over the weekend (800 miles each way). I have an appointment at the dealer who quoted $1900 on Friday. I may do that. I don't want to let the car go longer, even though I think the owner's manual recommends a change at 130k miles.

Hi All -- I've been quoted $2800 by two VW dealerships in NJ to replace the timing belt on a 2013 VW Jetta TDI (114,000 miles). A third dealership quoted me $1900. Both of these prices seem very high. Does anyone have any insight here? Why the two different prices, and why are both so high? I...
