Default 60k is a good idea

It is recommended that the timing belt be changed around 60k miles. Failures before 105k miles are not uncommon.

Default recommended by whom?

My manual states 105k as the interval to replace my TB on my 2000 a4 - verified by service manager and mechanic at dealer.

Good luck if you wait until 105k.

Default Re: recommended by whom?

I sure wouldn't wait that long on any car, no matter what 'the book' says. I'm guessing these 1.8t motors are interference?
