Timing Belt Replacement Audi 80 B4 TDI

HI,

I would like to ask, at this point, how important it is to adjust the injection timing after replacing the timing belt on a 1.9L TDI Audi 80 B4, manufactured in December 1994.
Audi's repair manual warns very strongly about a potential hazard, while Bosch's kit doesn't emphasize it much. Has anyone had any experience with this? And besides the normal replacement procedure, what else should be taken into consideration?

I've already replaced several ZRs. Also, each time, I've adjusted the start time of the subsidy. Theoretically, you don't necessarily need to do that, but it's definitely recommended.

If you want to know something specific, then you should ask a specific question!

Okay, I've already replaced the timing belt myself, and then adjusted the fuel injection timing using VAG-COM. But you can also do it with a regular analog voltmeter! (I've done that too, and it works great!)
Instructions can be found in the technical articles.

I haven't really noticed any real change, but it just feels much better.

Hi,

Thank you for the quick responses; they were really helpful!

Best regards, Muehlenmerlin.
