13 Instructions for a poly V-belt and toothed belt, if it came into contact with coolant 13 21 13 2062387/1 March 9, 2021. Model(s) Year VIN Range Vehicle-Specific Equipment All 2012 - 2022 All Not Applicable Condition Customer states: No customer concerns, it is found during PDI or any other diagnostic work. Workshop findings: The poly V-belt is wet with coolant and/or came into contact with coolant due to a coolant leak. The toothed belt for the valve gear drive is wet with coolant and/or came into contact with coolant due to a coolant leak. Technical Background Not applicable. Production Solution Not applicable. Service Poly V-belt: Note: Poly V-belts on Audi vehicles are normally not sensitive to coolant as they are made of the same material as coolant hoses. Therefore, there is no reason to replace a poly V-belt which came into contact with coolant and was then dried again. In isolated cases, a coolant leak can result in dirt accumulating or a crust forming (due to pigments contained in the coolant, for example) and scraping or damaging the poly V-belt. In such isolated cases, replacing the belt is reasonable. The Audi Technician is responsible for making such decisions on a case-by-case basis. Page 1 of 3 © 2021 Audi of America, Inc.

Toothed belt for valve gear drive: A toothed belt which was briefly in contact with coolant (Figure 1) and was dried again it does not need to be replaced.
