I bought my '91 200q 20v (3B) with about 69k miles; the shop who sold me the car says they thought that the belt had been changed; but provided no documentation. The belt cover is cracked,and you can pull it slightly to the side to see that the belt looks good. They were acting as broker; never met the owner. Anyways, I'm up to 80k miles and took off the timing belt cover to check the belt better. Thus the question: My belt has the following markings: CRP Automotive B-197 Replaces 034-109-119A Do Not Crimp 2354 30 Does this appear to be the factory original? I thought that Audi used either Continental or there own marked belts. This one appears to be in like new condition, no visible wear, no cracking, etc. Second question: I have two different bulbs in my city lights: Philips 12821 12V 5W Osram 5008 12V R10W The 10W bulb is noticably brighter. Has anyone added brighter bulbs? Are the lenses focused for use as headlights, or just as daytime running lights? Can the lens handle higher wattage, like a fog light bulb?
