I did my own timing and water pump replacement job. All work done without out a hitch. Any questions or tips I might be able to help. quintajl@hotmail.com Sorry about the explaination I was just a little happy that I did a job that most mechanics would not touch for some reason. Remember that the socket used for the turning the crankshaft is a 24mm not a 19mm Good luck! www.audiworld.com

aren’t you kinda missing the whole point of the cam gig is to hold the cams while taking loose the cam drive gears so they float? notice your tool has access to the bolts. and yes take the tensioner piston assembly out and compress it in a bench vice. also replace tensioner pulley, idler pulley, water pump and thermostat while in there.

hey thanks for the video. i’m having trouble with the timing belt tensioner. i got the allen in there but i can’t get the piston to go down enough to detension the belt. i’m going clockwise, is there something i forgot?

THank you so much for this! Not too much out there for Audi’s! I am doing timing on my A8 now, but have an ’02 Allroad 2.7T to do soon. I think your video will help tons!
Do you have any documentation that is helpful to removing the front ends by chance? THANKS!
