The engine in the Audi has a belt for the cams/water pump and a little chain for the balance shaft/oil pump I think. This one I bought came with a shop manual lol. And I'll look into the valve cleaning, its probably due......
Check out FCP Euro for anything your Audi needs, I buy all my Mercedes parts from them. They have a lifetime replacement program for their entire inventory including wear items and oil... free oil is good motivation to keep up with oil changes.
