Yes, easy(couple hours, depending on how many pumps, belts, etc hanging off the front of the engine), about 11 bucks. Good Luck,

  Subject: timing belt inline 4

  Before I go on my summer trip to Newfoundland I want to replace the timing belt on my Eurospec conversion. Here are some questions for the more experienced listees. I appreciate your help:

  1. Does VW really recommend replacing the belt at 70 000miles?

  2. How hard is the work re: the fact that the engine is slanted at 53*?

  3.How much is the timing belt for a 2.0l Golf/Audi hybrid?

  Any info/advice is welcome.TIA.Cheers,
