#27 of 32 Re: extended warranty for timing belt/2001 audi [mojdeh05] by dallas7 Nov 07, 2008 (7:09 am)

#28 of 32 2003 tt roadster by joconnor4 Apr 30, 2009 (12:07 pm)
Today I needed my key fobs re charged, I was told my timing belt has hairline cracks. They are replacing it now. I have learned that I should have received a notice about a year ago to have it checked, as the result of a class action suit. I am certain that had I been alerted, I would have been covered now rather than bearing the expense. Anyone have any suggestions how to pursue Audi for failing to notify me properly? I have all of 49,000 miles thus far. Replies to this message: ramonc (May 06, 2009 3:34 pm) suzas (May 28, 2009 7:59 am)

Replying to: joconnor4 (Apr 30, 2009 12:07 pm) Hi. Sorry for your troubles but Audi will only cover damages caused by a failed timing belt. The replacement of the belt is an owner responsibility. It is action like these from Audi that have soured my relationship with this car manufacturer. The worse part, and I hope I am not ruining your day, but this belt was an issue on this same motor on a previous model before the TT was released. And yet, they did nothing to redesign or upgrade the material of the belt. Way to stick it to the customer. My 2001 Roadster has this belt. I had it checked for free as part of the lawsuit and it was judged OK. I will check it every year and replace when necessary. It aint cheap to own a TT. Good luck.

Replying to: joconnor4 (Apr 30, 2009 12:07 pm) Having the timing belt changed next week 73K miles. (2001 TT Quattro) I received notification of the class action, can't remember when, but at that point in time the belt, which was checked for free, part of the "suit" was fine. When I went in for the 60K service they said it was starting to crack and recomended it be changed as soon as possible but by at least 75K miles....yes now I get to pay the $1400. for a new one. I guess I should have had them install a new one then...that is if they would have done it being that it was ok then....somehow I doubt they would have.
#31 of 32 Audi TT Timing belt How can it have such a crap timing belt. by dominics Sep 10, 2009 (6:43 am)
I don't know much about cars but the timing belt went on my TT 1 week after I bought it 02 model with 60k miles. How can Audi sell a car with such a poor quality timing belt. I'm waiting to hear from the garage to see how bad the damage is but I'm sick as a dog. Will Audi accept any responsibility for the damage? On a normal cheap car you would expect the timing belt to last at least 100K?
