Default timing belt or timing chain?
Is the 3.0 TFSI timing belt or chain?

Thanks!

I use Photobucket.com. Upload to your account, copy the bottom URL and paste it in your reply.

Good catch. I'll see if I have a chart for the TFSI engine.

edit: I didn't find a chart for the 3.0L TFSI so I went to a parts store and they sell a timing chain for the 2012 A6 engine.

apologies for the (misplaced) thread hijack, but this seems like a good place to ask: does the 2008 A8 2.8FSI use a timing chain or belt?

I'll try the Tech Forum... the quesiton relates to an A8, not an A6: I have an A6-C7, but I'm asking on behalf of a friend who has an A8 and thought this thread looked like it had people with access to the right tech pages to answer the question.
