Hello,

Well I finally made the group so hi to all ...

I have a question, which is why I joined. My TDI is beginning to output some black smoke
and I wondered what this means. Do some engines require rings at abut 100K miles?

Also, Do I really need to do a timing belt at 100K or can I wait another 20K miles? The Dealer want $850 bucks for this.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks
Gary
