Audi 2.5L TDI Repair Manual AEL - Find Here

Hello there,

Unfortunately (!!), I need to start looking for a workshop manual for a 2.5L TDI AEL engine. The timing belt has broken for an as yet unknown reason (after 50,000 km).
No scratches, original width, not porous... excellent.

The camshaft broke twice (!) at the height of the second cylinder.
I haven't seen that yet, it looks awful.

In other words, it's beautifully winter right now, and my Quattro is completely broken.

1.) Does anyone have a detailed engine manual for the AEL?
The 'Help Yourself' manual stops at the cylinder head.

2) What could be the cause of the damage, other than a sudden timing belt failure?
At the beginning of the chain of disasters. Solid, tensioned, deflecting, and water pump roller?

Best regards, Kai.

Besides 'do it yourself' or 'here's how it's done,' you won't find much else. And in the interesting parts, they're all just quoting from the fairy tale book they're referencing!
