No problem here its the smae as a VW engine ,now iam not sure if this is a common rail type or a injector pump ,All these engines have a 8mm hole in the spoke flange of the camshaft and pump timing wheel ,common rail may not have one though .Look for the TDC mark on the flywheel through a elongated slot then with the cam gear locked in with a old drill bit through the hole into the hole in the head and away you go ,now if this engine doesnt have any holes then look on the cam shaft for a slot on the back and this is horizontal ,A quick check is is too look at the inlet valve on NO1 and it should point up to the left and the exhaust up and to the right then look for the locating hole if fitted or a slot on the back of the cam ,WHATEVER YOU DO CRANK ENGINE SLOWLY WITH A RACHET , to make sure valves clear slightest resistance STOP .Didnt you paint the gears before you took it off? if the belt has broke then sure as **** eggs you will have at least 6 valves bent .Will be the same as a seat as well this car .Haynes amnuals are not worth the money i have found useless thngs
Exhaust pressure sensor a possibility if it has a DPF (diesel particulate filter). Has it had its fuel pump recall, the oil pressure light could be just the constant cranking and running the battery low.
There is only one way to tighten a bolt, turn it the opposite way and you loosen it. On my Passat the tensioner bolt tightens to the right same as any normal bolt. It sounds to me that you are being fed a load of ---------.
The only way for the valves to hit the pistons is for the belt to jump teeth or for it to break.
hi there if you remove the cam pully wich drives the diesel pump you will see a key way in the end of the cam turn the engine untill the key way is flat ( i use a streight edge in the keyway and turn until it is level with the top of the cylinder head ROCKER COVER REMOVED once this is aligned up there is a mark o the back of the diesel pump pully thiss aligns up with a groove between two castings on the side of the pump at the front of the engine once all these are aligned up you can put on the belt ( it may ot start right away this wil be due to needing to bleed up the fuel ONLY IF PUMP BEEN REMOVED and bleeding up the fuel can be a right pain. hope thos helps ben
never had a problem after a belt change, are you sure the crank hasnt moved and if it is the pd engine they need to be bang on or it wont go!! what timing mark did you use for the crank ?
There will be a tensioner that needs slackening off before any belt can be removed. Find the tensioner for the belt in question and slacken it off. When you have fitted the new belt, tighten up the tensioner as recommended by VW or the Haynes Manual. I hope the other belt is not the timing belt. If the timing is not set right you are looking at a new cylinder head at the least.
