I'm about to go for my first ever timing belt change. Any helpful tips would be appreciated. 2001 1.9 TDI new beetle.
Sounds like you aren't interested in doing it yourself. Where are you taking it? Maybe there's nothing to worry about except paying the bill.I'm about to go for my first ever timing belt change. ...
I've used the link often and linked it in many such posts, but now it won't open for me either. Maybe the site is updating the article.I am trying to pull up this link for info on doing a tb job but it dosent open
"make sure to lock everything before removing. Make sur the cam lobes are up and make sure tensioner tab is in the right place. Here is a sweet link http://pics2.tdiclub.com/gwillie/VW/...iming_Belt.pdf
Good luck "
That's what I'm saying. You do have the cam sprocket loose, right?so what your saying is that i need to bring the crank timming back a tooth so to speak, back to where the tdc mark lines up wiht the pointer in the window of the tranny while the cam lock is in place then tighten every up
thank youIf no one answers I'll check my book when I get home tonight.
