***Look to the right under our name where it says "History" - you can see how many we've sold since December 2010. That speaks for itself on how good a kit this is. And that's just the eBay sales which don't include our site or the shops around the country that buy from us!This ALH Timing belt kit comes complete with more than many
deluxe kits currently on the market! Originally 1999.5 TDI cars came
with either a 40,000 mile belt change interval (automatic transmission)
or a 60,000 mile interval (manual transmission). In 2002 VW updated the
timing belt part number from 038109119D to 038109119M, which allowed
for 60,000 mile change intervals in automatic transmissions, and 80,000
mile change intervals in manual transmissions. In 2003 the large roller
was changed from 038109244J to 038109244M (or H in some brands) which
allowed for 100,000 mile change intervals REGARDLESS of transmission.
All of these kits are backwards compatible with the older cars, from
the 1998 New Beetle to the 2003 Golf/Jetta/NB. I have sold hundreds of
these kits to all years of ALH TDI's--if you have an older ALH engine
code TDI why put a shorter life belt in? Upgrade now to the 100k kit
and don't worry about another change for a lot longer!We are a very well respected vendor on tdiclub.com - please see some of our feedback:
Q: What brand are the parts of your kit?A: There are different OEM items, but more often than not it's the following:
-Timing Belt --- OEM Ruville/Gates
-Serpentine Belt --- OEM Continental
-Tensioner, small top & bottom roller and large roller are all in a Ruville box, they are all OEM
-Camseal is OEM Elring, Victor Reinz or equiv. Upgraded seal with time saving tool available on our site only (I wish ebay allowed for options or we could offer them here too)
-Water pump is metal Geba or Hepu. Graf resin and Geba now our preferred brands. They flow wonderfully, have a great looking castings, are strong and have never come back on a warranty claim. The Brass water pumps we used to offer but they have come back a lot for warranty claims, hence we don't recommend the brass impeller pumps anymore..
-Coolant is also available on our site, but again is not available as an option here.We own TDIs and specialize in them, we have sold thousands of kits over the years, we will not send out any kits that are lacking in what is needed to keep your car going another 100,000 miles!Thanks for bidding!
