Recently purchased 02 A4 1.8t quattro Service schedule/maintenance question
Hello everyone,
02 A4 1.8t with roughly 120k miles (187 km) Purchased with 102k miles or (165 km)
Had no major issues since I've purchased it. Which is a huge bonus (still on student budget). Full synthetic oil change every 5k miles (7.5 km). I had a coolant hose burst after about 2 months of ownership, which is a common thing to happen, and was a quick fix. Also, I have ordered the fule filter due to noise from my fule pump. It only acts up when it is very cold -4f (-20c) untill the car warms up. I dont want to take a chance with having to replace the fule pump.
The car came with Maintenance records up until 70k miles (105 km) with a dealership stamp. On the next page @ 80k miles (120 km) there is no dealer stamp, and in writing states that the timing belt was changed.
Also the maintenance book stops after 105k miles (155 km)
My question is this: What should I do on my next oil change @ (192.5 Km)??
Do I follow the service schedule and cut the distance in half and start at the 60k miles (90 km)?
Also, what should I do about the timing belt? If it was changed at 80k miles it should be good for a while correct? Funny thing is, on the 105k miles (155 km) scheduled service page the box with change 1.8t timing belt is ticked off, no dealer stamp of course.
I appreciate any suggestions you guys/ gals have for me thanks in advance!!!
