Hello Fellows. I live in washington Dc. I have a 2001 1.8T, non quattro. The car has now 105K miles.I am in a situation where I need help from somebody. I need to change the Timing Belt and water pump. The car now is running but I think after reading a lot of your reviews that my timing belt is long due. My mechanic today told me that he does not have the tools to do this job. I am stuck in a situation where its atleast 1000 usd. I see a lot of reviews and posts where some fellows have done this themselves. I was wondering is there anybody out there who has done this before, who would like to help me as well. I offcourse can help but I am not that confident and have never done a timing belt before. I can drive up some distance, can bring food and drinks and offcourse if there is any compensation that you would like we can discuss that too. please email me. snipped-for-privacy@gmail.com I can order all the required parts, but dont have those important tools. Help a friend in need! Thank You all, your feedback on this is highly appreciated. snipped-for-privacy@gmail.com.
