as title.
have mk5 2.0 gttdi had timing belt done & dont think they reset injection cam.
had forum member Damoegan scan my car torsion value at -2.9 within spec but bottom of scale.
would rather was +0.5 as getting bad fuel economy & hard start
-
where can i find these readings??
might just check this on my own as i feel economy is less than before i changed the belt
-
in vcds
1 engine
2 measuring blocks
go up to block 4
4th box along torsion value
-
Try Steve at Triple H Motorsport. Top bloke and does a proper job.

Plus one for Steve at triple h, he knows his stuff mechanically, I use him all the time, tell him I sent you and he'll see you right

are the readings taken at idle??

Don't pay again, take it back to the garage that fitted the cambelt?

Hi pdt I have another thread on here where as the garage who did timing belt.
When I was due to collect car guy came out asked me if my car started ok normally because car wouldnt start.
He then had to start over.
When I collected car he explained belt had jumped a tooth.
So no confidence to go back.
-
shame, might be worth putting it in writing to him and asking for him to pay for the work to be rectified.
-
got a reading of 1.09 on mine tonight....
what sort of variance can you have ???
-
tolerence is between +3, -3 but read at optimum at +0.5
-
hi anyone have idea how much would be to get my TB rechecked & IP cam set-up correctly.
money a bit tight at the moment but would be happy to offer beer tokens if anyone has the knowledge & free time,
