Hello all,

Customer is bringing me an A4 for a timing belt replacement next week.  Has
the 1.8 turbo in it.  Is there anything strange I should know about before I
give an estimate on this thing?  Any special tools like the V8 needs?

Just completed the complete TB job on my V8 last weekend.  I don't think
this will be a problem.  Just curious.

Thanks,
Kyle

Did this back in Dec on my 1.8tqa.  The only thing I can think of are the o-rings for the transmission cooler lines.  I bought a couple from local hardware store for less than a buck.  They were perhaps a mm too thin in thickness but the difference was really small.  Anyway, my ATF leaked out after a couple weeks.  Went to the dealer and got a pair for a couple bucks each and re-installed and put in new ATF.  Hasn't leaked since.
 
Other than that, everything seemed OK.
