Timing belts mk5 gti
« on: 11 May 2013, 15:32 »
Just bought the mk5 gti with 108k fresh from Japan, so me thinks I should go and straight away and change that belt.
Has anyone bought any none vag timing belt kits like this one from continental which includes pump?

Any thoughts or opinions vs oem would be really valued.

Thanks.

That kit will be fine or look for a Gates kit as another choice.
