VW 2.0 TDI T5.1 Belt Tensioner change. This video describes a top tip to removing and installing a new belt tensioner which is bolted on from the rear making it extremely challenging to work with.
Nice work mate, new subscriber 👍 I have just started making content and know how much effort it takes especially in the beginning when it gets little views,Well done
Did you replace the bolt with a new one? I tried to do this job for days but gave up in the end because I couldn't get to the bolt. Thanks for the tip, would love to know how VW does the job
A nice handy tip or two. Hopefully VW dealers will have a tool to do the job quicker as using a spanner on it own would really rack up the hourly rate that they will rob your wallet with. Their parts certainly do that two. Just had a new Clutch kit and Dual mass Flywheel from them and it was over £1800 all done, I would hate to see how much it would have cost if they had done the work rather than my local Mechanic. Had to go genuine down to supply times and going away last weekend.
