Hi guys,    Could someone tell me exactly what do i need?    Octavia 2005  1.6 FSI  BLF engine code,

 

it covered 58000 miles, I own the coar for the last year or so,  and dont think that this job has been done on it,,,   there is no any rattle sound or any problems, i just want to do it,    i've found this on ebay- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TIMING-CHAIN-KIT-FOR-SKODA-OCTAVIA-1Z3-1-6-FSI-02-04-10-08-ATCK87WO-2777-/230899245620?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AOctavia&hash=item35c2aae234

 

 

that is only the chain and a tensioner?? am i right?    I've read that water pump need to be done too,   could someone shed some light on this for me please?     I won't be doing it myself, got a fella who can do it,    i just need to know exactly what parts are needed and where can i get them,  thx   and sorry if this was already mentioned on the forum,   regards   Martin

Hi mate

Unless you've got reason to believe there's something wrong with the timing chain and or tensioner, leave it alone. It should last the life of the engine and doesn't need changing at regular intervals like a timing belt. Certainly shouldn't be worn at 58000.
