    Looking for recommended shop for T-belt service in Socal?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    It's time for me to change out my T-belt, tensioner, termostate, etc. Can some of you socal guys recommend me an independent shop that is trustworthy, reliable, great service, and uses only Audi parts? Oh, also to add...reasonable princing.

    OC area would be great.

    Thanks.

    Not sure if you already know this but Audi just came out with a revision to the timing service service schedule. If you have a 2.0 engine you don't have to change your timing belt until 110,000 miles.

    Check out www.exaltmotorsports.com, I never take my car to shops because I don't trust them, but I took it there yesterday (emergency) and I wouldn't hesitate to take it to them again (it's actually going back wednesday )
