GUTTED, been told by garage that the timing chain from the back of the car has snapped causing the pistons to damage.

Sounds to me like the garage hasnt fited the new cam belt back on correctly
which has caused this..

I would say there trying to fob you off,what timing chain from back of car ?? never heard of that before !!!

Get the car checked by Audi and see what they say and if they think the new belts been fitted wrongly get them to write up a report and go back to inde where you had it done...

If they wont play ball then threaten them with trading standards being called in ...

Let us know how you get on ...
