Fixing the camshaft gears in the TDC position
Turn the engine crankshaft to the TDC ignition position for cylinder 1.
Insert the VW-T10016 locking tool with two locking pins through the locking holes in the camshaft gears until they stop in the installation holes in the camshaft housing. Both locking pins are inserted correctly when the tips of the tips -D-line up with line "A".
Move bracket "B" until it stops against gear "C" of the intake camshaft.

Tighten the toothed belt. To do this, turn the tension roller counterclockwise by the internal hexagon "1" until the pointer "2" in the viewing window is located above the protrusion on the carrier plate "arrow". In this position, tighten the fastening bolt "3" with a torque of 20 Nm.
Main Timing Belt Tension
If the main timing belt tension roller has been removed, it must be turned counterclockwise by the internal hexagon "arrow" to the position shown in the figure.
Tighten the mounting bolt "2" by hand. The head of the bolt "2" must be located in the cutout of the carrier plate -1-.
Using an Allen key, turn the tension roller in the direction of the left arrow until the pointer "3" is above the cutout in the carrier plate -right arrow-.
Tighten the tension roller mounting bolt to a torque of 20 Nm.
