    1.9 TDI Timing Belt Question

    You will need vcds as mention as any tiny movement of that pulley results in a great amount of adjustment of the +/- angle. When I did mines im not sure if I managed to get the belt off and on without touching those 3 bolts. If I recall once I released the tension on the belt it came off OK.
