Timng Belt or Timing Chain?

[dtownsend]

I have just bought an Audi A4 (Avant) 2.0 TDI registered in May 2008. It is 2 years old (registered May 2008) and I have asked the Audi dealer about the Cam belt replacement etc. They tell me the car has a timing chain rather than a cambelt so it does not need replacing and is covered during normal maintenance inspections and services.

This doesn't seem to be consistent with what I have seen on google etc!

I wanted to know if the car is actually fitted with a timing chain or a cam belt and was sure someone on here would know!

Thanks in adavance for any help you can provide.
