Why Are Timing Belt & Water Pump Replacements Important?

The timing belt (also known as a cambelt) is one of the most critical components of your Audi or Volkswagen engine. It synchronises the camshaft and crankshaft, ensuring valves and pistons move in perfect harmony. Over time, timing belts naturally wear out, and if one fails, it can cause serious and often irreparable engine damage.

In most Audi and Volkswagen engines, the water pump is driven by the timing belt. Because both components share the same service life, it is strongly recommended to replace them together. Replacing the timing belt and water pump at the same time not only saves on future labour costs but also provides complete peace of mind.

Audi & Volkswagen Timing Belt Replacement Intervals

Manufacturers recommend replacing the timing belt and water pump at regular intervals, typically every 5 years or 60,000 miles (whichever comes first). However, intervals may vary depending on your specific model and engine type. At Holmfirth Garage, we can check the exact timing belt schedule for your Audi A3, A4, A6, Q5, Q7, Volkswagen Golf, Passat, Polo, Tiguan, or Transporter.
