Spot on advice Gerard! Always markup before removing the original belt even with the timing locked in position! ❤

I did a timing belt on my 1,4 on my seat, slightly older engine (BBY) with a little different setup but very similar. I always mark the belt, sprockets and the engine block for reference, then I transfer the marks from the old belt to the new and just put it in the same way I took it out. No way to mess it up if you line up the marks and count the tooth in between. And of course like any belt job it's a good idea to spin the engine by hand a couple rotations to make sure the marks line up again.

VW say you need to change the cam bolts which adds another layer of complexity to the job as the gears are simply floating, what is your take on that?

I've only done the timing chain on the 1.4 Golf. Same deal with the special tools, paint marker and plenty of patience

100% mate, patience in workshops is often not afforded to Techs based on costs, book times and customer expectations. To successfully do these jobs solo I believe the right tools need to be supplied or there is a high risk of mistiming which can lead to poor performance, running rough, poor fuel economy etc... Sometimes expectations do not match reality and as techs we should encourage the use of correct tooling (which I know you absolutely do) especially for the individuals that are attempting this type of work without having a good amount of experience doing timing belts. Risk vs Reward : |

@@GerardBurkeBurkesGarage Totally agree. You can't expect quality workmanship from staff if the correct equipment is not provided.

I had an 2018 1.5 tsi should i need some special tool for replacement

If there is ACT or double variators (this one video does only have one varitator - adjustable valve timing) you need dealer specific computerized advanced timing tools.
