Agreed! My friend's broke at about 5000 RPM while overtaking a truck....I
must say that his belt had at least 100k miles on it so it's been no wonder
why it broke...that's because certain Audi mechanics over here in Bekgium
still don't think it's necessary to replace a t-belt on an I-5 engine
because they're not interference engines...oh well, I guess that when
another one will tell this to me, I'll bet a new head that it can bend
valves...and I'll have a spare head for free :-)
