maintenance on my B6.

[robbie_boy]

I'm going to be pulling the front off my car to do the timeing belt and was wondering what other things I can change in there as well? The car has 200,000 on it and I just want to get this stuff done all at once.

Thanks,
Rob

How deep are your pockets? The service position is good for replacing the pretty much anything lol.

Definitley check out, and if I were you, replace ALL the check valves and vacuum lines.

This... Check the breather tubes running off the exhaust side and with some additional steps you could do the thermostat j plug PCV valve and yeah the list goes on....

When I did mine I did the following:

Timing belt (and related parts)
Water Pump
Serpentine Belt
Thermostat
Cam Chain Tensioner and gaskets
Cam Seals (didn't do crank, it's too much of a PITA to get out with normal tools)
Front Mount Intercooler
Cleaned TB, IAT, MAF and MAP sensors
Fixed any exhaust leaks I could track down
PCV adapter and new elbow (pretty sure I did it at this time)

Think I did more but all in all it didn't take much more time to do all that vs just doing the timing belt and water pump and now I have peace of mind that the major maintenance items are out of the way.
