Just my two penn'orth worth, the damage can depend on the type of 2.5tdi. For example the version in my A6 (aym) if the belt snaps the pistons stop before wrecking the valves etc. Whereas the more refined versions (180bhp) such as bau can wreck the valves etc. as yours is a late model allroad I suspect the latter will be the case.

Servicing is key. Any proof of major work too. Proof of gearbox oil changes and oil changes on the quattro system. Make sure all electronic items work such as AC as they can be expensive to fix. Also check out YouTube buyers guides

Under MOT rules MOT testers can only check the parts are fitted, not if they've been blanked out of the ECU. Garages are suggesting this as it's far cheaper than changing the egr.

Don't buy a cheap Chinese one that's all.id say. Look online for turbo specialists such as turbo technics etc.

Steve Q replied to Grant-S4's topic in Audi A4 (B7) Forum

Steve Q replied to photon's topic in Audi A6 (C7) Forum
Sorry to hear this. Shocking that plastic is being used for such an important component -
Have you done a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up?

Also could the battery be failing causing electrical issues?

It might be easier to source a second hand one from eBay.

I think you might need a second opinion. But the light could come on even if the timing is out by 1 tooth.
