So the OEM belt has writing on it? I checked mine and it’s just all black, all around. So I’m guessing it was replaced

String thankyou = "Thanks alot. This really helped me before starting the job"; System.out.println(thankyou);

Thank you ,Thank you , Thank You !

The timing mark is on the cover of the belt

Great video! Thank you! Do you have the torque measures?

Before you take the belt off and put on death center do you turn it counter or clocks wise? And after you put it back you do it same way 2 times ?

Thanks!!!!!

? i have a 2.0 VW JETTA WITH 140000 MILES NEVER REPLACE THE TIMMING BELT

Ok but does anybody at all have an accurate picture for the timing marks for crankshaft?

Does anybody know how to set crank timing if timing jumped a couple of teeth?

How to you put the timing back if u turned the cam gear???

Thank you! There is suck little information on mk6 2.0 NA engines.

Thank you! There is suck little information on mk6 2.0 NA engines.

Thanks for the video! My 2015 Jetta is about 110k. Owner manual says timing belt replacement at 90k，Dealer said 150k. I want to know when is better and safe to do the replacement?

Hey Tim: This was a great video. I recently purchased a 2013 VW Jetta with the same motor. I ran a Carfax report and the car was well serviced, but then I realized the timing belt was never done and it has 113000 miles on it. I have done timing belt changes on several Japanese cars before, but never a German car. A great sigh of relief knowing that this will be an easy job. Putting a mark on the crankshaft was a great piece of advice to give to your audience. I highly recommend three other things. Use a magnetic tray for the bolts. If you have multi-colored markers...mark the bolts. Use your smartphone and take pictures before you take it apart. Take care my friend

don't ever take this video down!!!! thanks bro.

Great video. But I have a shield in between serpentine and camshaft belt. The metal piece. Not the plastic with with clips on top location one. I tried to move the tensioner to move the shield and no go.

you should make a video about removing the crankshaft timing gear cause thats what im stumped on

Install timing belt onto water pump as the last pulley. Set on cam, crank, tensioner then on pump.

Very helpful!! Pretty sure my girlfriends cars timing belt met it’s maker!

Great work 👍

Jajaja so dramatic thats the same 2.0 motor since 1999 mk4 jetta bitch

I know it’s been over 4 years but after that week You mentioned, did you encounter any problems or did it run smooth for a good while?

Great video, super information

I like VWs but I will never buy one again due to the timing belt. Why not just use a timing chain like other car manufacturers so you never need to change it? Am I missing something here Volkswagen?

Hey man, thanks for this video it was super helpful! I just finished the job Here are a couple things for others who see this video that aren't mentioned: 1. Make sure you have some fresh coolant on hand to refill the cooling system when you're done, you lose about half a litre or so of coolant when you pull the water pump. 2. Here are torque specs you'll need: Coolant pump: 15 Nm Timing tensioner nut: 20 Nm Lower mount - engine: 45 Nm Stretch bolts that must be replaced: Upper mount - lower mount: 2 large bolts: 60 Nm + 90° Upper mount - frame: 2 medium bolts: 40 Nm + 90° Upper mount - frame: 2 small bolts: 20 Nm + 90° Make sure youve got those stretch bolts, apparently they can snap and you'll have a bad day if you don't replace

There's actually a trick to that hard to reach bolt on the serpentine belt tensioner. I'll try my best to explain this. If you notice on the top of the tensioner there's a metal tube piece that stops the tensioner when the belt is off. When you pull back the tensioner to max there's a little hole that lines up with that tube so if you can get a pocket screwdriver/small punch/metal pin in there you can keep that tensioner pulley out of the way while you remove the bolt. Also you're gonna wanna get that bolt out first that way you can max out tension again and get whatever tool you used to hold it in place then do the other 2 bolts otherwise you're gonna be fighting the tensioner off the car trying to get your tool out.

Hi . I have a VW JETTA 1.4l 2013 Petrol, and i can see a belt that is not moving when the vehicle is running. I think it maybe an Air Conditioning belt, but when i put the air conditioning on it still does not move. My vehicle runs rough, ie, misfire No. 4 . Code P0304 and P0300. I have changed the plugs and coils, but it is still the same..I also found oil in the plastic Air Inlet manifold. Could this motionless 2nd belt be the problem? thanks Ozzy Nick.. Great vid by the way.!

Which parts did you buy? Was it a kit?

Is it interference or not?

I love my 88 Camaro with 18 inches of space between the belt drive and radiator lol

Think I’ll just trade my shit in...

is the timing belt right next to the Accessory Belt Drive? or is it the same thing lol

Hey Timothy I had a question

Hi, I got a question for this engine, is it interference or non-interference engine?

Pliers to set the tensioner! thanks you just saved me buying another useless tool.

Very well presented.

Are you going to do videos for the transmission fluid or fuel filter?

Changing the timing belt and water pump for the first time. Close to 255,000 km. Decided to stop pushing my luck.

Thank you !

Great video 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏼

Thanks for posting. You taught me that I definitely do have what it takes to do this job by myself!

What timing brand do you recommend?

I think I'll just drop a rack for someone to do it 😂💸

So you didn’t change the shafts seals and the thermostat? What about torque settings? For everyone using this video I would advise two extra marks on the belt itself, transferred to the new belt will save you a lot of headaches! 😉

Is this engine non interference or interference? I just got one with 124k miles and I don't know if it's been changed.

So I used this video to do my timing belt and water pump on my 2012 Jetta s. From using this video and doing it myself I noticed there are flaws with using your method. The bolts on the water pump are actually 5mm allen. You dont need to remove or loosen the 2 bolts on the alternator cause the 3 bolts holding the serpentine belt tensioner is all you need to take off to remove that tensioner. The tensioner will slide out under that power steering reservoir bracket. Also the harmonic balancer does need to come off to remove the lower timing cover, but there is 1 timing mark on the harmonic balancer and one on the lower timing cover. Marking the gear for the crankshaft the way you did is the wrong way. I did this and my timing on my camshaft was 180 degrees OFF! I had a code for a P0016. How the car ran and I didnt ruin my engine is beyond me. I drove it for about 2 weeks. The car was sluggish and idled rough at times. The correct way to time this engine is to put the lower timing cover back on and then the harmonic balancer back on and mark both the timing cover and balancer when both are removed. The balancer will only go on 1 way so you cant put it on wrong. Take white out and mark the camshaft and TDC mark for the cam. Then put the cover and balancer back on after everything else like the water pump, tensioner, and belt have been installed and the tension set. There is a special tool for the tensioner that I got from ECS tuning to adjust the tensioner much easier and allows you to tighten the nut easier while you hold the tensioner till the nut is tight. I got all the parts from ECS tuning. OEM remaned water pump, OEM tensioner, and the belt. Make sure all marks are on TDC and spin the crankshaft 2 times. The metric size for the crankshaft is a 12 point 19mm. After it's been spun twice check all the marks to make sure they all line back up correctly. Because the crankshaft gear where the timing belt rides on is smaller than the harmonic balancer it will actually spin farther than it should because the actual timing marks for the crankshaft is on the balancer and lower timing cover.

Hi Tim, thanks for the awesome video! just one quick question, what is the proper torque value for all the bolts and nuts? Also, did you replace any bolt in the process as I recall VW like to use one time stretch bolt on a lot of places?

Just found a 2011 jetta for 1500 and they say all it needs is a timing belt so if I end up getting it, I'll be sure to use this video as reference

how do u you know if the bottom is set to tdc independantly like say your timing belt snapped. obviously setting the camshaft on top is easy becouse it has a grove and an arrow but what about the bottom??? how do you know where to line up the bottom independantly. the white mark u made. the crankshaft doesnt come with no white mark. no videos show how to line up the bottom crankshaft. can u explain this??? thank you
