Timing belt Continental or OEM Audi

Been running them on my 350hp turbo M20 for 6 years now with no issues

Those cracks look worse than what mine did. I had gotten my car at 134k mileage and I changed my belt at 180k but to be very honest I think my belt had been on there for much longer before I owned that vehicle and I think I got lucky it never snapped into pieces.

I ran a Continental belt on my timing belt. 30k km's, absolutely revving the snot out of the car and ragging on the car for a long time. Belt survived no problem. Appeared to be good quality

I did mine at 100k and I selected the Continental ContiTech Pro Series Plus timing kit with plastic impeller (PP334LK1) for $245.

just did my belt and everything on a mkiv with a kit from there. Good parts and continental belts

I buy continental belts, always have, just piece of mind doing the job right and having a quality part.

I had to change timing belt two time at year (Continental Contitech) now I have S300SX FMW twinscroll turbo running at 42psi + 220hp nitrous shoot. I didn't test it at dyno, but it surely have 750hp or more. that is why I look for better timing belt.

6 years or 75,000 miles is the most I'd push any timing belt. We inspected a timing belt on a 2002 A4 with 57,000 miles in September - in-service date of 6/1/02 so it's over 6 years. Told her the belt is walking off, riding the edge of the tensioner and fraying.

Posibil sa fi pățit ceva asemanator cu piese cumparate de la Bardi. Distribuție schimbată de 2 ani și 6-7 luni, m-a lăsat in drum după 35k km. Din câte știu ar fi trebuit sa țină 4-5 ani sau 60k.

Forget the kevlar belt, stick with the Continental belt. A search of these forums will reveal chronic problems with it.
