Simply way to check them belt is to pull the cover off. Really simple to do. Make sure to change the tensioner with the belt. Highly recommend you do your drive belt at the same time. As for the water pump replacement, I still haven't done that. I'm up for my third belt in 5K miles, (210,000 miles) and I don't intend on replacing it.

I have a 2010 Audi A4 avant.. I believe the timing belt has slipped but not sure. the car was in the garage for a seperate issue, broken suspension spring and the garage left a light on over night. Coming to it in the morning they recharged the battery but the engine management light came on and it felt a little different to drive.
No idea what (if any) Audi recommends for replacement. My SQ5 is older than yours. At present I have no plans to replace timing chain. At 100,000+ miles or if and when I heard a rattle, I might consider it. If you have concerns, as per previous post, speak to your local dealer. 2013 Audi SQ5 Misano RED.

Dec 27, 2007. #6. They are an interference engine, but a timing belt failure does not 100% guarantee a catastrophic engine failure. I had the tensioner let go on me, I guess the spring inside it slipped around about an inch and released the belt, the engine stalled and wouldnt start, but there was no damage to the head. peq03Ng.
