[jetta diesel]

Hello to one and all, I just signed up as new member. I have an 06 Jetta TDI that has 77,000 miles. My owners manual says to change the timing belt at 80,000. How difficult a job is this? I really don't want to give the VW dealer $1400 every 3 to 4 years for a job that can be done at home.

Hi bud,welcometomyturbodies. There's a good faq for doing the belt on here.

http://www.myturbodiesel.com/1000q/a5/a5-Jetta-TDI-FAQ-index.htm

That's for the brm engine but there's others there too if it's the wrong one. It's in the 1000 how to and index faq at the top of the page. There's good people on here with tools and advice if you get stuck.
