Hi,
I've already posted in another forum, but unfortunately, no one was able to help me there. icon_sad.gif
I have a C4 with a 140hp TDI 5-cylinder engine (AEL). Now, I urgently need to replace the timing belt.
In my clever 'I'll do it myself' book, it states that you need the crankshaft counterholder tool 3256 to loosen the central screw on the vibration damper. However, when I check on the matra website, this tool 3256 is described as: 'Pressing in rubber-metal bearings for engine mounts' icon_question.gif.

Can someone tell me if this tool is the right one, or if I have the wrong one in the book? Or where else can I buy the (correct?!) tool?




'Thank you.'

"So wirds gemacht" also features this same content. Maybe they copied it from "Jetzt zerstöre ich ihn selbst," or vice versa.

Hi!

3 options:

- Buy, if possible.
- DIY (Do It Yourself)
- or, as I have successfully done before: ask "friendly" questions to see if they will offer it to you.
Borrow it until tomorrow morning!

Hi,
Take a look at http://www.zelenda.com/VW/EngineTools3.html; there's a part shown in the picture there.

Regards,
Olli.
