In this video, you will learn when to replace the timing belt on the Audi A4 2.0 TDI. One of the indicators that the timing belt needs to be changed or is close to needing replacement is the squeaking noise coming from the timing cover. Usually, this noise can be heard when the engine is cold.

However, it may not be enough to just hear the noise to determine when to change the timing belt; you should also inspect the timing assembly. For example, when the bearing around which the belt is wrapped is leaking grease, it means intervention is necessary.
