It's a difficult job compared to easier engines such as the 1.8T or even the 2.8 V6. You really need the special tools to lock the camshafts in place and other tools for the hydraulic sprockets, etc. In case you don't already have the new parts, check out Blauparts for their kits. The mid-grade kit is a little over $500, has about all the replacement parts that you will need, and a guide booklet.
When me and my son-in-law did the "timing belt job" on my A4, which includes a new coolant pump and all rollers, it was an all-day project, and he is an experienced dealer mechanic on German cars, with all the correct tools.
