Default How much of a dagger is changing the timing belt on a B6 A4 1.8t?

The DIY I found shows removing the radiator, etc. Is that really necessary? How many hours are we talking for a first timer?

Default May as well throw in Rob for hosting and Adam for cooking while we're at it.

We'll get the whole AWMA involved!

Default I need to help a friend with a B6 1.8T for his timing belt DIY. Maybe we can have a TB day after

a month or so, still recovering from surgery.
