In 2008, the Volkswagen Eos came with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine as the standard option, but they also offered a 3.2L engine upgrade. If you have the standard engine, it utilizes a reliable timing chain that rarely requires replacement. However, if you opt for the enhanced V6 engine, it will come equipped with a timing belt that should be replaced approximately every 85,000 miles. The cost for a replacement kit with a new water pump typically ranges from $70 to $200. Volkswagen is known for producing high-quality timing components, so the chances of needing to replace them are minimal.
