I've done plenty of timing belts on 4.2 V8s (set up just like the V6) and never had to loosen or pull the cam pulleys. Leave them bolted. If you need to move the cam to fit the alignment tool you can use one end of the alignment tool or a ratchet with socket to move the cam shafts.
Perfect
Glad to hear it helped you on your 94 v6. Yours probably has alot more miles plus its older..thats probably why it was hard to get them off. cheers
Great tutorial. The VW dealer wanted $1800 to do this. Parts from Amazon totaled about $210 and with my labor, the repair costs what the parts cost. Dealerships charge 4 times the cost for parts and their labor is $140/hr. This guy just saved my Passat from the junkyard.
Nice, thanks for commenting.
Polecam , prawidłowa wymiana paska rozrządu ! Chyba jedyna na yotube ...
nice video this was all good info ive done this before and always fought with geting the belt on the cam pulleys right then i saw how you separate the pulleys and tighten them up after the belt is engaged. This worked like a charm thanks again.
np, glad it helped you out. cheers
Thanks for the great tutorial! Mine has split down the middle, not completely splitting and holding the timing in place still. Lucky me, I hope that the heads cylinders pistons and valves are okay..
Great video and well detailed.. I do have a question from part 1 and that I’d when the cam lock bar was installed (engine at TDC) why did you rotate the crank 30° ccw? Was that to stay below the deck when you took the cam lock bar off to do all the components, water pump..etc? If you had the crank lock pin in you would not have needed to go ccw, you have the crank lock pin why didn’t you use it here? Thanks
np, did the car have 125K by any chance? I've bought two V6 Passats with about 125k on them with broken timing belts.
on 7;10 did you move 30 degrees counter clock wise the crank for avoiding contact of valves and pistons??
do you have any video of same engine but removing auxiliary vtec timing tensioner any tip when I remove the cams is that a good Idea to move the crank shaft 30 degrees left? thanks for sharing
great video. i used this video to replace the timingbelt for my audi cabriolet v6 1994.
except for the tensioner its quite the same. Surprised how easily your camshaft gears went off. mine were stuck. couldnt get them loose.
That's what I like about BMWs and Mercedes no belts just timing chains you don't have to replace.
videos were great! worked like a charm, are extremely helpful. Thanks so much!
amazing video
my 2002 passage v6 been leaking coolant most likely bc I put water on the reservoir for like a year or so:/ so now I have to replace the water pump if not that fix wer the leak is coming from
great video learned a shit ton :)
Great Video ! I wanted to know do the cam Gears Need to be lined up with some type of marks when putting it back together i see there is a cam sensor to check the timing or something on the driver side of the head?
Excellent video! Jut perfect! I got a broken timing belt right after I bought my passat - same day. Now I've been replacing my heads for a couple weeks. I ordered a timing belt kit and I was wondering how to get that stupid fan clutch pulley out of its location?
I know this is older video, but why turn the crankshaft 30 degrees to TDC? Is this what keeps the pulleys from turning when trying to remove them?
muito bom tenho uma audi 96 a4 2.8 v6
igual esse motor ai
carro muito bom e potente.
parabens pelo video.
After installing timing belt when putting crank locking tool onto crank was there any resistance or did it push right on reason for asking I had to put the Locking tool on the left hand and push down on the right of the lock tool a little bit and then push it into the driver side cam after belt in installed there was no resistance
How exactly does the camshaft timing belt sprocket engage to the camshaft itself? is that a friction type mating taper surface, or is there a key? that's pretty scary if there are no splines or even a shear key.
Is it essential to separate the cam sprockets with that separator tool? Would it be impossible to fit the new belt without having the sprockets loose? I have the timing car ordered to secure between the cams, but i just wonder if the sprockets have to be loosened and put back on, is it essentially to get the belt on easier?
Per audi service instructions loosening the sprockets is essential for the new belt to be tensioned correctly, if you choose not to do it you risk having the engine slightly out of time. Many techs do this with varying success, some dont even know that the sprockets are supposed to be loose, they just throw the tool 3391 on there and slap the belt on. For the peace of mind i'd recommend doing it the "right" way. Worst that can happen is a CEL for cams being out of time.
By the way you should use original audi parts for timing, if not possible then its advised to use INA or HEPU products, most of the cases when the belt snaps is a failed hydraulic tensioner or a bad water pump. Thermostat should also be replaced.
Great vid,,,, do you have a vid on how to get the crankshaft sprocket off so I can replace the front mail seal or know of a video that will help me....please, thank you????
Great video. ? I may have put in the wrong thermostat w/o the bleeder valve facing up. It's not mentioned in the video and we had to get one from a local cheap autoparts store. Is it possible to change the thermostat w/o removing the timing belt and everything else?? thanks for your help
I have heard / read, that if you remove tension from the timing belt, you can slide the timing belt (on the bank 1 cam sprocket) towards the front of the car, to give you room to remove the thermostat (belt still on cam sprocket, just sitting 1/2 on the sprocket).
Can you please tell me for this V6 2.8L at what miles or kilometers should the belt be changed? I'm getting conflicting information from 120,000 miles or 140,00 miles?
Can it be be done without camshaft tool just to change water pump just lock belt in position with zip ties and back off tensioner to move lose part of belt to get to water pump?
I managed to replace waterpump,timing belt,and all components without removing front end. I did not use any cam locking tool and i used no crank holding plug. As a matter of fact it was not hard at all. But when reinstalling you move crank back one tooth counter clockwise and you move drivers side cam back one tooth counter clock wise and install belt. There will be slack so when you turn crank clockwise to top dead center it will pull the slack from the whole belt and all cams will be realigned. Be sure to mark the crank and both cams with nail polish before you remove old timing belt. Easiest timing belt i've ever done. Only thing hard about the job was unbolting the many bolts holding water pump in and bolting in new water pump.
That 2 leg puller for the cam shaft... Does it have to be a certain thread pitch? If so because I don't want to buy the wrong one.
i have a VW 2004 my timing belt had the teeth stripped and the roller pulley broken how should i go about getting it back into time any help would be awesome thank you for the video was very helpfully overall
Sorry but your valves in your cylinder head are more than likely bent and your cylinder heads need to be removed and rebuild or replaced by used ones.
You make things look sooooooooo simple, well done good sir,, will this work on a 2003 a6 2.7 awd twin turbo Quattro ? I've looked at many videos and this looks very similar ????l
I wondering if you could message me all the list of tools? I'm gonna be doing this and there's a lot of tool, I bought the camshaft holder just need to find out what hex, and torx socket size, thanks!
I'm just getting my feet wet in the vw scene. I thought the 3.0 and this 2.8 were same block. I'm looking for the camshaft tool I have A4 3.0 vin T’
And the tool holds the cams by the shaft above not the sprocket.
Is this the same process to hold timing. ?
What about the exhaust cams position.
Great tutorials. I have a 99 A6 with 209000 miles, It runs great with no issues other than leaking cam / valve cover gaskets. The previous owner had timing belts changed twice. I have started disassembly but haven't removed old timing belt yet because the timing mark on the balancer is several mm past arrow while the cam locking tool is in correct position. The current timing belt mates well and all the teeth are intact. Could a previous mechanic have reset the camshafts off a degree or could the cam chains or chain tensioner be causing the difference in the timing mark. I have also noticed some slight belt slack around water pump pulley. Do you have any ideas on why my current timing mark is off. Could this be typical for a high mileage engine?
dan t I dont think the timing is off otherwise you would get a cel (usually for cam sensors), more likely scenario is the timing belt has stretched over time. Especially since you have more slack by the water pump. Make sure to replace the tensioner if it hasnt been replaced.
RatchetsAnd Wrenches I have an enhanced blau kit. I have also decided to replace the alternator while everything is off. Thanks again , your videos are a great compliment to the service manual.
If you're facing the engine the left crankshaft pulley I'm sorry timing belt pulley came right off just like you showed the right side keeps turning how do I get that to stop
Hey Mr. Ratches and wrenches. Great job with all your videos.
I have a question for you. The timing belt on my 2000 A6 quattro avant 2.8 broke while driving at 65 mph. Does this mean that the engine is shot?
How did it go?
I like the video but can you show how to set 30v cams in case they are off?
Nick Chesshir just rotate the crank pulley 30-45 degrees before TDC just like he did, in that position is safe to rotate the cams without hitting any valve. Needless to say all this needs too be done without timing belt, after you done aligning the marks on the cams count the links between each cam, there should be 16, once u verify this bring the crack pulley to TDC, lock the cams with the special tool and install the new timing belt.
Angel C are the big holes supposed be facing towards or apart from each other
On the cams
Angel C mine moved when removing the belt can I just rotate them back ?
I am going to be replacing my timing belt on my 1998 audi a4 quattro 2.8l b5. Now my camshaft sprockets are lining up . Driver side is vertical and passenger side is somewhat horizontal. So how can I use that tool to hold the sprockets in place. Help plz.
How can I line them back up to use that tool. Bc that's what is holding me back from replaceing the timing belt
Excellent video. Thanks!
So you took the pullies off to reset the piston right or no...
i need help i do something stupid a toke out the timing belt without put the camshafts in line witth the aligment bar and now i need to knoy how i do to alig the camshafts b cause when i put the marcks of the cranshaft pulley the cylinder number one donot be up it is a trouble or not
Is there EVER a reason to drain the Freon when replacing water pump/timing belt?
Where did you get that puller
How much do you charge for this exact same job on a Volkswagen passat 2003 v6
Ok TH-camrs, I have a question? When sitting the timing on a Audi 2.8 30v, which cylinder needs to be at top dead center when sitting the timing? I have heard cylinder 3 and cylinder 1, but im not quit sure and don't want to grenade my motor. Thanks in advance!!!@RatchetsAnd Wrenches
hey i did something stupid. i took off the belt with out cam locking tool, both cams moved any suggestions for getting the timing marks for the cams and crank?
How many hours does that job take.
how to aligmen the cam Bolt on audi 1999 a6 quattro 2.8
hey im having a problem with my 2001 audi a6 2.8l only got 94k on it. im getting code po300 po304 po305 po306 po345 po156 i change the spark plugs and wires but still having the same problem any ideas also i only get misfires when the rpm is lower then 1 if its 1 or higher everything runs fine
+Lp Liverpool did you ever figure out what this is? I have the same problem except on bank 1 I've even done the coil pack thing and nothing helps, was it your can tensioner on that bank?? Thanks SO SO much for any help you can offer!!
No i sold it
+Lp Liverpool damn.. did you drive it like that without much issue.. it's not running all that bad..
رائع جدأ انا اعمل في مجال المكانيك
if your socket is 10mm then your bolts are 6mm bolts.
