Hey everyone,
I have a 2011 Mk6 GTI with ~58,000 miles on it. I'm APR stage 1 with CAI. I'm thinking about doing the TSI Tensioner update since I am quickly approaching the end of my Powertrain warranty, and plan to keep this car for another 4+ years.
What is the current advice regarding when to do this service? Should I get this changed asap?
What am I looking at in terms of cost to do the swap? I will look around for quotes but want to make sure they seem reasonable compared to what others are paying. I do not have time or resources to do this myself, so looking to have a shop do it.
I also could use a new clutch as mine has been slipping a bit due to the stage 1 tune. Would probably go with RSR clutch. Should I try to have both tensioner swap and clutch install done at the same time?
Thanks!
