[Closed] Diagnose my VAG problem...

It's the aux belt not main timing belt that's subject to a recall as far as VW have told me (on the various vans I've had in the last 3 months) doesn't apply to all vans oddly either.

Just as well you do not gave the bitdi engine, the egr cooler is known to disintegrate sending metal particles in to the engine causing full bore wear resulting in a new engine. VW refuse to acknowledge as it only happens outside the warranty period or about 70k miles

He did mention it was the auxiliary belt and tensioner, but then went onto say can affect the engine timing, so just assumed the timing belt was also driving everything else too. Anyway glad its done.

So it wasn't bacterial vaginosis?

Good deal.

I'm going with injectors

Quite often the cause of VAG issues are faulty injectors..

Oh well done sir...
