Yeah, that's what the dealer told me. Luckily I brought it in just under 80k. The $1,075, I should have mentioned, is a "high estimate" accoding to them. Typically its less (again that's what "they" say), but they quote a higher price just in case additional "things" (that's what they said) need to be replaced/fixed when they take care of the TBelt and WPump. I can't imagine the actual cost will be lower than their estimate...but, they seemed pretty confident the actual cost is typically lower than their estimate. Whatever, taking the plunge in couple of weeks; let you know what happens.
Timmay, I would think the price would be cheaper in NYC/Tri-state area, since there area alot more audi dealers and euro mechanics down there. Up here in 'Cuse, we only have one audi dealer; the next closet is in Ithaca and Rochester.

Good find on edge motors. I'm going to check it out once I get my "new" car.
I just called them to make sure their prices are the same and for a 2005 A4 1.8T Q Ultra Sport, he said the price is $590 and would take about 4-5 hours to finish.
Do you know if there's anything to do in that area?

like around edge motors?
its a bit sketchy, nothing within walking distance i believe. if you have another ride palisades mall isn't to far away for a day of shopping while the audi is getting worked on.
of if its nice out go to bear mtn park. once again only if you have another ride
