    Diary of TDI Conversion - Day 12 Cam Belt replacement

    G'day Guys,

    After a night lift the motor / gearbox / transfer was in the chassis, this was an important deadline as I had booked the car in for a cam belt kit / timing housing + cover seals / new kick down cable / ZF service / tappet set / all new belts / breathers etc etc.

    All parts were supplied by www.karcraft.com.au and all mechanical work was carried out by Mark at British and European Motor Works www.bemw.com.au - well recommend both

    You can see the old cam belt has the outside edge already taken out!!!



    All important bits checked out fine - crankshaft key way / timing / valves timing etc

    As you can see the beast is coming alive!!!

    Good project, Hybrid.
    Could nearly see in your pic. what I wanted, but not quite!!
    Is the belt guide flange on the crankshaft pulley or the idler. The latest (and I thought bulletproof) is on the crank pulley (where mine is) When I did the belt change (90k.) I made provision for a 3/8 brass plug near the top L/H side front of the timing cover. This way I can "keep an eye" on any movement of the belt. So far tot. km,s 150k. no movement ie correct tracking. It may be worth doing, looks neat and tidy as if original.
    cheers sheff.
