« on: March 05, 2011, 11:45:24 am »

its twin fella,  :happy2:   the pics may confuse you though as 1 cam is belt driven and the other is driven from a chain off of the belt driven cam

Indeed  :happy2: The 2.0T FSI engine has dual overhead cams (DOHC) that are chain linked but only one pulley is driven by the cambelt like most VW engines since the 80s.



VCDS Scanning/Coding, RNS and MDI retrofits, and specialist mechanics services with VAGtek available - Just PM me for details.

Ah that would explain it  :laugh: I changed the belt today with a mechanic friend and was confused as to there only being 1 camshaft pulley  :laugh:
