Gates 98-05 Volkswagen Passat V-6 2.8L Timing Belt Component Kit

When it's time to replace the timing belt on your 1998-2005 Volkswagen Passat or Audi A4/A6 with the 2.8L V6 engine, using a complete kit like this one from Gates makes the job much smoother. This kit contains all the essential parts needed to get your engine's timing back in sync, which is critical for proper engine operation and preventing serious internal damage.

Gates is a well-known name in belts and related components, and this kit reflects that. It includes the timing belt itself, along with the tensioner and idler pulleys that guide the belt and keep the correct tension. Replacing these components at the same time as the belt ensures that everything is working together properly and extends the life of the new belt. The parts are made to meet the original equipment specifications, meaning they'll fit right and perform as expected on your vehicle.

This kit is designed for a range of Audi and Volkswagen models from the late 90s to the mid-2000s, including popular vehicles like the Audi A4, Audi A6, and Volkswagen Passat. Having all the necessary parts in one box saves you time sourcing individual components and helps ensure you don't miss a critical piece during the replacement process.
