Default Timing Belt

What's the recommended mileage for changing the timing belt on a 2001 S4 ?

Default Well, it's 37,200 miles on the RS4 ...

and people think the factory recommended 105,000 miles is too long. I figure on doing mine around 60,000 miles. The dealer loaner allroad I'm currently flogging has an underhood sticker recommending 75,000 miles.

Default If you're conservative, 60k, like to gamble, then 105k.

I did mine at 80k

Default My '00 is 105k

I think it would be the same but not certain. Plan on a big bill if your not doing it yourself.

Default Just the RS4 Training Guide. You want? 10.9 MB pdf

It doesn't have a lot of service interval stuff. It's the equivalent of hte S4 Study Guide, and I got it off AW a few years ago.

Sure. I'm a newbie to S4's and any info is welcome. What's you're preference for getting it to me, email or a site to post to?
