The 2014 Audi A4 2.0 TDI comes with a timing belt, which Audi refers to as the Camshaft drive belt. It is recommended to have the belt checked every 60,000 miles and replaced every 100,000 miles. Mechanics typically charge between $400 and $500 for a timing belt replacement. If the timing belt were to break, you would hear a loud snap noise and rattling due to loose parts in the engine. In that case, the car would not be driveable, and you would need to have it towed to a repair shop. Signs that your timing belt might be failing include rough idling, engine misfiring, an oil leak at the front of the engine, and the check engine light coming on.
The suggested interval for replacing the timing belt on a 2014 Audi A3 2.0 TDI is 110,000 miles according to the manufacturer's guidelines.
