I use idparts or World Impex. No problems with either.

Just had a World Impex TB kit put on our 2.0L gasser. So far so good. It included TB, Access belt, rollers, water pump, seals, bolts and thermostat. $175.

is pretty good! he offers Deyco TB's as well at a better price than most contitech belts as well... great shipping - great service....

Hard to name a "Best" in this (or any related) category...

Most of the well-known suppliers have gotten their reputation from doing right by their customers... They know if they don't "go the extra mile", their competitors will...

In no particular order:

www.dieselgeek.com
www.metalmanparts.com
www.boraparts.com
www.idparts.com
www.worldimpex.com
www.ecstuning.com

and for the Canadians:
www3.ns.sympatico.ca/roseland/VWPartsA4.htm
www.precisiontuning.ca

(and I'm sure I left someone out... apologies...)

(I've dealt with 6 of the above suppliers and have received top-notch service from all...)

I'm satisfied with my purchase from DieselGeek....it appears to be complete, took almost week, from order posting(holidays) to get to WA from TX.
They shipped pretty much what they said they would....only noted exception so far is that the Gates belt was made in the UK, rather than Germany, as stated in the website literature.

Now, I'm hoping these are the best parts available.....:bowdown

I've used many of these and have been satisfied by all. As long as you stick to reputable suppliers its hard to go wrong. Just installed a Dayco HB belt and it seems to whine. Have heard this will dissipate with time. Other than that the kit was complete. Very satisfied.

I got a couple from metalman and no complains. They have a no non sense web site, good description and at a very good price.

I use gates and never had any issues.
