Nice purchase.
Always nice to see a VW hauling a VW.
Yellowsubmarine took good care of his 2011. My wife drives that one now. She loves it.
We might have the same questions as you wanted from @alphaseinor, in the future. Because at some point the DPF will do its fail thing.
Thanks Mozambiquer. I was hoping for a way to check with the belt on. But didn't think of a way.
Sounds like belt off. Then the check is the 10 seconds?
My new replacement sprocket went half way on before stopping. It was hot from the oven.
I did read about others had that happen even after heating.
So I had a short piece of metal pipe and BFH that I could hit the sprocket the rest of the way on.
While it was still kind of hot. Maybe a cast...
Matt's setup now looks like the way to go. I prefer single mass flywheels in pickups and equipment. Thanks Matt.
Says 240 mm flywheel that still uses a stock starter and no spacer. I guess a custom made flywheel can do that? 30 lbs. sound good and heavy.
Single mass flywheel 240 mm and South...

I had my auto to manual conversion delayed till next...

Leaking at front of engine?
There is a crankcase breather that got messed up along with the front lower cover on mine. When previous owner had a chain break on OEM BSM.
I don't think a geared BSM is stock on yours. Maybe a OEM chain broke on...
I heated up my sprocket in the oven. Carried from the house to the shop and used welding gloves to put on.
It probably was 250-300° by then. Only went half way on. Then I hit it the rest of the way on with a metal pipe and a BFH.
If I remember right, the pipe centered on a lip on the sprocket to...
Might want to double check my answer looking up BHW timing belt replacement.
Going from memory, the cam turns once to 2 turns of the crank.
I think if the cam is locked and the crank is locked you are in the right spot. That cam has to be pretty exact to get the stop pin all the way in. I...

Not a picture expert. I used this style crank lock. Raised dimple in the bottom hole of the purple lock. Blue tape on cam lock pin.
