Isn't the Cambelt auxiliary on this engine, it seemed it was when we checked, and yes full belt kit

It ran fine after installation, but it would seem as if the idler has become sticky or seized

I have attached a photo of my Cambelt. Basically fitted it 300 miles ago. Checked it and it has a strange metallic glaze on it with the same corresponding glaze top idler. it is a 1.9 tdi 110 afn. It's running perfect but wonder why it's wearing like this.

Hi, Looking into doing my job my self with an skf kit, I saw a video on line with an skf kit where the tensioner had a pin I that you turn anti clock wise, tighten, fit belt, turn clockwise and then anti clockwise again until arrow marker is aligned and then torque 20nm to tighten, but it was...

Hi, I am the owner of a 110 1999 c5 a6 1.9 tdi, I am wondering what the engine code should be and where I can find it, new to the a6 so just looking for some info, so I can make progress with a few little mods, any info on this engine is greatly appreciated like, the weak spots ( turbo vanes...

Yeah, think ill hold out for a 1000, because any less than that and I couldn't let it go because it drives too good

Recently decided to sell my audi a4 1.8 tqs, It is going to be sold with 140,000 miles, audi service history upto 115k, plus standard services after. NO Quattro noises, engine is sweet, will sell with an MOT once the abs module has been repaired by a company, not myself. once I give the wheel...

My N75 valve had a code on it when i bought the car and was running abit lazy, i have picked up a n75j valve as i read that yes it brings boost on more aggressively and may boost more, which i may like may not like, but only until the ecu learns it and deviates it back to standard power, and...

Yeah I got it off a tqs which was breaking, I never asked if it worked, because it was pretty irrelevant, it would be soon to break if it was working, so I bought it at a price where a repair is stomachable, I was just worried if the not recognising was indicative of it needing coding or...

Like the tittle says, I fitted an untested abs module, the bosch number is the same, but the VCDS says it cant find the module ( No response) when i search it, Need help, as to why, does it need coding, i was told it wouldn't.

The bosch part number is 0273 004 284 , But obviously finding a specific is difficult, are there any other pumps that will fit and work?

Well I attempted to, but it looked as if it had been re sealed before and made a real mess getting in, so I need a replacement one x

Wondering where the best place for an abs module is, do i wait to find one that fits my model coming up ( code ending in A or E) or is there somewhere that sells refurbished ones, i dont want it breaking again if i fit it. Help needed, jay

As the title says, on ebay there are a lot of cheap obd2 vagcom leads and copys of the programme, do these work, i only need to clear minor codes etc

so you soler a copper wire between the two silver wires and then solder that to the contact pad?
