How To Replace A VW 2.0 FSI Timing Chain | VW Golf/Jetta Mk5

- This VW 2.0 FSI timing chain from the BVZ engine (also similar to other similar VAG engines) was begging for a replacement, based on the rattles and the stretching over time. So I replaced the chain as it's the best way to avoid engine damage, well things didn't work out well.
This had me free-styling rather that following the factory repair manual. This video is well detailed and can be helpful if you are also considering a change, before things go south. I hope you enjoy watching this video as I enjoyed making it. If you have question please write your comments below and I'll respond.

![[EP10] Timing Belt & Cam Chain Replacement (Rounded Off Cam Nut) - Golf GTI Mk5](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nCQP15VN1GI/mqdefault.jpg)
Excellent video, all the others on CZcams are very limited with info. I have to do this next week and was stressed over stripping the bolt as it is known to happen, you are the only one providing a backup plan. Also the 19th link is clearly explained, I was confusedwith other videos as they only talk about the brass link but does not mention the location for the other cam. Well done with this, now I feel comfortable doing mine
Thanks a lot Anthony, I appreciate it and I'm glad the video could help you.
The bolt does strip a lot even when you have the right RM10 bit so you need to be careful when doing it. . . One I thing I try to do is make sure I explain as best as I can so that you are not left confused after watching my videos.
Thank you for subscribing to the channel if you have done so already, if not please consider doing so.
Best video with details, much appreciated Sir 🫡
It's a pleasure man, thank you.
May I please ask you to kindly subscribe if you haven't done so already, if you have thank you.
Thanks !!! From Russia with love !
I appreciate the support man, it means a lot thank you.
Again! A super well made video full to the brim with information.
Thanks man, I appreciate it. If you wanna do the job and there's something not so clear please ask I'll clarify... Thanks for supporting the channel as well 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
@OverideZA Yes, well, first of all, do I HAVE to remove the timing belt cover (on the opposite side of the engine) in order to remove the timing chain tensioner? (Located between the riming chain) Do you have WhatsApp? Could I ask some questions there
You only need to make sure that the car is on TDC before removing the chain. If you can do that without removing the cover then great, but if not you have to remove the cover.
Yeah I have WhatsApp, check my number on the Facebook link
Great video brother! I also stripped the cam exhaust bolt and I was looking for video to see if I could install and time the cam chain without removing. You helped me out a bunch man! Thank you!!
It's a pleasure man, I'm glad the video could help. That bolt is really in there tight and getting it out is really not easy. Before removing the cam tray just make sure you mark everything and you should be good
The locking tool didn't fit because you didn't have the cams in the correct position for the tool to fit (iirc its TDC on cylinder 1).
Also don't use a torque wrench for wrenching to undo bolts. Its a precision instrument and you'll put it out of calibration.
VAG connectors come off a lot easier without risking of breaking if you push down on the connector then press the release tab and pull.
Oh okay thank you for the advice, will surely make use of it next time.
Was about to say the same. Timing tools are always go tight as it's high precision tool/poistion.
And Cam carrier should use special sealant not standard silicone as so much silicone will make it sit little higher what will affect clearance on camshafts.
At times they are never tight, they have a lot of play and makes the job a sloppy one.
With the sealant I used one which has a good level of reputation and even today, I've never seen a single leak
@@OverideZA What was the sealent you used? I have hondabond but not sure if that would work
I used Reinzosil which comes in a blue/white packaging and it works perfectly. I have not even seen a single leak
Good job mate!
Thanks a lot man, I appreciate it
Thank you so much good man!
@@neatpolygons8500 it's a pleasure, I hope the video was helpful.

Top Job!
Thanks a lot Peter, I appreciate it
Thank you I’ve been searching for a removal on this timing cover for ages! I think my hpfp internals fell inside :(
Damn I hope they didn't damage anything when they fell inside man... Well, I hope the video will help you sort it out.
Best video!
Thanks man, I hope the video was helpful.
@@OverideZA yeah!!!!
@unknownperson8584 thank you 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
bjr le serrage de torx a 8NM et 90 degré c est pour tout les vis torx arbre a came et les vis torx aussi qui tien le cache alu
I don't understand the language, sorry
Could I get a list of tools used for this video?
RM10 Bit
Cam Locking Tool
Reinzosil
T30 Bits
19 mm socket
Torque wrench.
I think that's about it
I didn't know and I'm still not sure whether mine has both chain and belt but I'm starting to assume it does have both. The manual does not say there is a chain too . I have an A3 FSI 2.0 from 2005 .
Give me your engine code I will check for you
@@OverideZA engine code is BLR mate . Thanks .
@user-ft2yz6fy6t it does have a chain which drives the intake cam.
Ok mate .Thanks for the info Much appreciated. Trying to learn all I can and try do my own maintenance. I have had my A3 for five years and it's not been to garage while I have had it so I must be doing something right lol.
@@user-ft2yz6fy6t it's a pleasure man.
Lol I guess you are doing things right if the car is also not complaining
hi my chain broke I have to remove the cylinder head to check the condition of my valve because I saw some people have nothing broken the valves?
Hey man, yeah if it broke then you have to remove the cylinder head because there's a chance the intake valves are damaged.
Please kindly subscribe to the channel if you haven't done so already, I'll appreciate it.
@@OverideZA OK thank you I think it's the pulley screw that broke I'm going to remove the cylinder head tomorrow I subscribed in France no one wants to change the chain
@@makacrack700 the pulley screw that you have to remove in order to remove the cam gear? So when it broke the gear fell off inside the cover?
Thank you for subscribing, if you were in South Africa I'd fix it for you.
@@OverideZA yes I changed the chain it started the first time after 5 minutes because there were 2 of us working on it I didn't want to do the screwing so I removed it with the reinforcement how the video worked very well but I'm sure It’s the aim that broke that of the pulley that holds the chain. I have no idea who happened.
Eix that's bad man sorry. Try to see if you can get another screw and replace the gear as well
hi how do you remove the egr valve?
I'm not sure about that, I'll have to check.
@@OverideZA ok thanks
I have a problem that rpm still high for 2 minutes when i start the engine then it came normal
It's a normal thing across all cars. Don't stress about it. Especially when you are starting the car for the first time in the day (usually in the mornings).
Thank you. It was about 30 seconds but now about 2 min. Is it normal?
@@mohammadalkhalaf2658 could be normal, it also depends on the seasons. During summer it take a bit longer, in winter it doesn't last much
Is there a marking on the crank gear please?
The crank pulley has no marking... The marking is on the camshaft gear.
@@OverideZA so how do I check the piston timing then?
@@jeanlorrainesolomon958 there's a marking I showed on the video. That mark needs to line up with the OT mark.
@@OverideZA thank you for the info. 🙏
@@jeanlorrainesolomon958 Please make sure you don't skip the video because you will skip vital parts of the job and you won't know where you've done wrong.
What is a Caba
I don't know what you mean by "Caba"
Boss I wish to pay you a visit maybe you can solve a problem I have, pity I can't share contacts
What's the issue with your car?
Two warning signs on the clock the motion sensor light and airbag they affect the power of the car
@@solomonmnguni9742 oh okay that's interesting. Is the ESP warning light?
