Could some one tell is the 3.0 tdi is belt or chain driven and any known issues with the engine , ie have they improved the

throttle body quality ( had to have two replaced on my Q7)

would you guys recommend the 3.0tdi or 2.0tdi ?


Many thanks

Chain, no interval.

2.0 in the C7 is ok, up to your own preference power wise/transmission options.

you only have one throttle body, i think what you're referring to is the intake manifold problem?

i don't think i've seen anything on this forum, so do your own search and see.
