RS6 timing belt kit - Group buy

[V8weight]

If any of you guys are interested in a group buy on a timing belt parts for the RS6, I can put together a kit of OEM parts for $385.00. This will include all parts necessary to do the belt, idlers, tensioners and water pump. Here's a list of what each kit will include:

077 109 479D Tensioner dampener
077 109 485E Tensioner lever
078 109 119J Timing belt
077 109 244E Timing belt roller
077 109 244C Timing belt roller x2
077 121 113D Thermostat and O-ring
077 121 004P Water pump and gasket

This is cheaper than you could source the parts on Ebay, from someone you know. I'm hoping to get 5-10 people on board, for this price you could pick up a kit and throw it on the shelf. If you have an RS6, you're going to need this sooner or later.

[yokust]

Is this with a true OE waterpump, or OE aftermarket?

Just curious, because for that price if its a OE pump I would jump in on this

[skyegtb]

Very interested, can you ship this to the UK? How could I pay? Thanks, Angus

This is with a Graf water pump.

I could ship to the UK, although I'd have to price out the cost. You could pay with a credit card.

[skyegtb]

OK, thanks. Will standby for your update on shipping cost.

[V8weight]

OK, thanks. Will standby for your update on shipping cost.
Angus, What's your postal zip code? I'll try to get a shipping quote.

[skyegtb]

PM sent, thanks

[hahnmgh63]

I'll throw my name in on the hat for a kit. Count me in. 75K service will be in the next year or so.

[V8weight]

OK, so far we have
1. Hahnmgh63
2. Angus ?

[Chung]

Boo, I am having my timing belt done right now. I guess next time.

[DHall1]

I will need these in 5 years or so....by then the parts will cost 3000 dollars. Hmmm

[MaxRS6]

I am certainly in!

[MaxRS6]

Yeh- And only 522 miles moved on the odometer...Your cost per mile may be higher than mine...LOL

[V8weight]

I am certainly in!
Do you want on the list Randy?


Yeh- And only 522 miles moved on the odometer...Your cost per mile may be higher than mine...LOL
Yep, Dave's pulleys will go rusty long before he's due for another belt. ;)

[MaxRS6]

Do you want on the list Randy?

Yes- please add me to the list. Will be having this work coming up in the next few months.

Thanks for putting this together to save us some $$$

[V8weight]

Ok,
1. Hahnmgh63
2. Angus ?
3. Randy

Dave, will one be enough? Should I put you down for two kits? :)

[DHall1]

Hey, hey

I get no respect. Where is the youtube of Rodney on the golf course again...hahah

I put 5k on my a year. That makes it 8 more years to hit 75k.




Yeh- And only 522 miles moved on the odometer...Your cost per mile may be higher than mine...LOL

[MaxRS6]

If you need to stay in practice for the timing job in 8 years, you are always welcome to visit Arkansas and do my timing belt job. I might even buy you a coke and a round of golf or two....00

[V8weight]

Oh, your piggy bank has a slot at the top???

[MaxRS6]

I have something else handy with a slot at the house- But I digress and drink too much...00

[DHall1]

Did someone say free golf?

One of my favorite movies- especially in its' day.

This is a shot of one of my golfing buddies- It gives a good insight to his personality and our golf...:)

Classic Movie Scenes

Do NOT bet money on golf with Dave... Especially using handicaps. He's waaaay better than any first year player should be!

[skyegtb]

Angus, What's your postal zip code? I'll try to get a shipping quote.
Pat, can you also supply the serpentine accessory belt? PS, you can definitely count me in, thanks.

[MaxRS6]

Amulet:

^ LOL- How much did you lose?????

We have to arrange some golf if we happen to do a track event together again. Maybe, I come up a day earlier or day later- I'm always up to a round of fun. If you ever get to my area, you know to ring my bell.

[V8weight]

Pat, can you also supply the serpentine accessory belt? PS, you can definitely count me in, thanks.
Oh shoot, I forgot about that. Yes, I'll include it as well. Would everyone like a belt in the kit? I'll see what I can do to keep the total near the original total price.

[MaxRS6]

^Please keep me on the list- Thanks for putting this together Pat

[terrytcl]

pat,
water pump has metal or plastic impellers?

[V8weight]

pat,
water pump has metal or plastic impellers?
Metal impeller, this is a Graf pump, which is the OE manufacturer for the Audi pump. It's what I run in my car, and have run in all of my VW/ Audi's.

[V8weight]

So we have confirmation from:
1. Hahnmgh63
2. Angus
3. Randy

Did I miss anyone?

[V8weight]

Ok, the accessory drive belt adds $40 to the cost of the kit, for a total of $425. Do you guys want this in the kit as well? Let me know, I'd like to get 5 people on board before I submit my order.

[MaxRS6]

You know I'm all in- Do you offer

http://www.collectorsquest.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/trading-stamp-8.JPG

[V8weight]

Ok, I just got off the phone with my supplier, final price with the parts listed in the original post, plus the accessory drive belt comes to $395.52. Let's see if we can get 5 spots filled.

Where in NoVa are you? I am organizing another Dyno Day in Fairfax middle June(you missed the one in January).

[ilovegt100]

Yeah, followed that closely but I was stuck at work. All for another dyno day... The last time I did one was a few years ago at XX Tuning in CT (since folded) with their dyno dynamics unit. It was an audi/subaru meet and it made me dream of installing dump valves. Been lurking here for years since I was up in Nene's neck of the woods.

Nice. I will check that out. I was considering the ecs or the blauparts kit. How many miles have you logged on this kit?

[JSRS6]

a little over 10k. all the suppliers are OEM/OES.

[JSRS6]

I've also heard good things about the blau kit. ECS had issues, not sure if they are fixed. Not with bad parts, just wrong parts.

[V8weight]

The GMB idler and relay roller in that kit are not OEM...I've seen these fail, just saying.

[ben916]

a little over 10k. all the suppliers are OEM/OES.

$10k?!?!? Don't pop a piss test...

[4everRS]

I think he's talking about miles, not dollars

I didn't get gmb for either. But I guess you could get stuck with them. I got skf and febi.

Haha, yeah. The 10k was in reference to the mileage since tb service.
