Default It doesn't specify what the manufacturer is in the auction.

I replaced my Valeo with a Bosch, but needed a new pulley to retain proper belt alignment.

Probably easier to find another Valeo.

Default would you happen to know if a 120A Valeo for a 2.8 would work in my 1.8T?

IIRC, the mounting tabs are different.

Default yea i came across a couple posts where you mentioned that. I think I may have found someone...

on Audizine parting out an AWM. Hopefully they have the same one I'm looking for. I'd rather be certain.
