Awful... All the best to your bella

[macspring]

Poxy luck.

Selfish comment - Just concerned for myself rather than looking to throw stones, pun not intended, but if you were not running an under tray, would that have contributed to the cause ?

Best wishes. Hopefully there's some sort of silver lining however small, even if you most likely cannot see it right now.

Booger....

Hope it's not as bad as you fear...

It is an interference engine - inlet valves are all bent - all eight of them, so it is a head off job.Sorry to say - I have been there too .

No undertray, haven't run one since it flew off at 120 in 2007

Belt was less than a year old.

For the belt to snap the timing cover and end up in the cambelt is something you just can't account for.

Will check compression but expecting it to be head off. At least all the bolts won't be seized as it was only built 4 months ago.

Scary think I'll check my belts too, good luck fella

That is really bad luck, very galling after just getting it back together after all the work.

I would be wary of running it, if it has a bent valve and you break the head off the valve you can easily damage the head, piston, block and turbo.

My mates car dropped a valve head, punched a hole in the top of the piston, mashed the head/valves, scored the bore and blew fragments out the exhaust.

You could do a compression test as that is less force, but for the cost of a head gasket I would probably just pull the head.

If it was "all" it would be 10, not 8 (5 x 2 = 10).

Sorry I've done it on 16vt as well

With respect to the Cam timing belt:

OE (if available - rumoured to be NLA but might be with Audi Tradition):

AAN and ABY = 054109119H 151 tooth timing belt. (151 Z in Katespeak)
NM,7A and 3B = 054109119G "toothed belt" 147 teeth (not 151 for the 3B)
RS2 = 034109119C = 150 teeth according to the photo (not 148 as I once thought)

After Market:

Gates PowerGrip 5269XS (151 tooth x 19 mm wide) (presumably the same as the OE product, just in a different package):

Thanks to "TyloPuP..katMAN" and "dustovich" for doing the digging on the Continental belt.
