octy 1.9 tdi 90 bhp timing belt change

Featured Replies

Hi all , please can anybody help, my timing belt needs to be changed, im fairly handy as i do all the serviceing and any work that needs doing myself, can any of you tell me if the belt change is in any way a d.i.y job including the waterpump and tentioners, is there any links to guide me through this job or should i just steer well clear and go to main dealer . thanks. dave24

Depends on what tooling and skills you have.

If it goes wrong its a new engine. You need to remove the engine mounting so need a way of supporting the engine whilst doing the job.
