Just about every VAG (VW/Audi) with an FSI engine most likely is going to need a lot of T&C…Also, VW/Audi are one of the most expensive cars to maintain at when you get into high mileage because of high labor costs (parts are cheap). The issue is most moderate work requires removal of the front end (bumper, radiator in lock position,etc). This includes belts, alternator, timing belts. The traverse mounted engines are the worst.
