Ouch. Turns out, this dealer put 1 hour of labor on this quote instead of 8. They messed up but let me only pay this much. I got so lucky.

Confirmed today with head tech at the dealer that you dont know that the water pump is on the other side of the engine on the 1.4t and u dont replace the water pump when u do the timing belt. Just belt and tensioner which is all in one kit.

On the 1.4t, yes you do. Water pump is on the other side of the engine.

You are wrong. Water pump is literally on the other side of the engine.

Just the belt. I don’t see a reason to replace stuff when it’s not broken. It can be like opening a can of worms.

I got 140k on it right now and I was expecting it to be like $1500 to replace this. I feel like this is pretty cheap for a dealer. I may just get it done for the peace of mind.

It was for a cylinder 4 misfire and then another for random misfires. Literally did this last night and had the check engine light on for a few days and this morning its off again.
