i just put this kit on my 1.8t and no issues after about 2k miles. From what I hear the contitech stuff is actually better then oem. Im not really impressed with the oem stuff anyway.
My Audi 20v five potter uses the same tooth profile as the 16v but the t-belt is the 19mm wide flavor. I've never minded ripping that thing up to 7K and feared that the belt would'nt hold up... even withe the 4 extra valves and the waterpump running off that belt!! I'would'nt panic as long as it gets replaced when it's due. Oh and don't get me none of that cheapo stuff either.. gotta be ContiTech or Gates!!! And don't spill oil or grease on any belt!!
On my TT, I did it every 50K miles. Had heard of failures and it seemed like cheap insurance ...
