Audi A6 2.4 timing belt - Cheeky
Hi folks,

I\'ve got a 1998 2.4 A6 with 54000 miles. Audi recommend changing the belt around 60k which is when it\'s due for its next service.

The worry is because I\'ve noticed a fairly quiet metallic clunk/pinking from the engine at idle. This noise is also fairly errtic and more noteable sometimes than others. Could it be tappets/belt change warning??

Oil level is good, petrol decent quality - any suggestions very much appreciated.

What\'s stopping you from putting it in for service early? It\'s putting off the inevitable for no gain it seems to me.
