VW Transporter T6 2.0TDI - Timing belt and water pump replacement DIY? This is how... 

This is what is called professionalism. Great video man.

I love it when you describe the process in detail, I would like to know better how you determine belt tension better.

Krásná práce chlapy! At se daří v zahraničí :)

9:27 I’m glad I’m not the only one who uses persuasive language like this when working on my car! 🤣 Great video as always. Thanks for sharing. 👍

This is a perfect mechanic for a vw repair video ...... Great video, thanks for the info.

Great video, really nice to see someone who wants it to be right👍👍

Yeah I love watching a master at work

Great videos love your channel from a t5 owner

As far as I know the torque spec for the lug bolts are (unlike passenger cars) 180 Nms.

If i'm correct the crankshaft bearing is an PTFE bearing and should NOT be oiled but needs to be placed on dry surface.... they will leak again... but good job anyways on the timing belt and taking the time to replace the bearing. I would change the crankshaft pulley aswell since i've had some who were worn out causing motormanagement issues and hard starts. Also needed to remove the sump to put on bearing but i know its much more time consuming.

Excelente trabajo y muy buena explicación a detalle recuerdo mi juventud cuando era un tigre para realizar reparación de motor

Thanks for the great video. What brand of spanners are you using and can you give us a tool box tour. Thanks.

Amazing and quick job, as always, thanks for share, I like the same your special tools, what we doing without inspiration? Good idea

Great video and well explained

Love it the way is shown thank you

A job very well done sir 👍

most of that bead of silicon you put on would have been pushed inwards and will eventually end up in the oil pump good video very informative

Excellent video

thank you so much for this.

Great job. Хлопці ви молотці.

Great video, thanks

I’ve done loads of these and undo the fuel pump sprocket nut too as per manual. I fit the idler before the belt but I know that it’s probably a trait you’ve continued from the earlier Vw Diesel engines where yeah it makes it easier to fit the belt without the idler in place, not so much on these but nice work

Great video 😊👌🙌🍀

Nice clear detailed information

Nice video! How much are the costs approx. ?

Hi there. What's the procedure for coolant bleeding after replacing the timing belt ? Thanks

thanks for lesson

What's the little torque tool u use seri use it a lot in your videos

Hi Mate how long to do this whole job? Also do you have a link for the torque tool you used ? Is it must to use the timing tools ?

I can buy a mayle water pump and timing kit more than half price for VW t6 2017 plate would you recommend this brand or stick with VW parts thanks David

I can buy a mayle water pump and timing belt kit a lot cheaper should I stick to the genuine VW or go for the mayle ? Thanks David

Nice work. How long did this take????

If you want to just change the crank pulley do you need to lock off the cam? I would not think so if it’s just those 4 bolts

Počujem dobre žeby Slováci super práca cením spravená tak ako by mala

20:46 Dobre!:)

Does anyone know anything about a updated timing belt COVER for the T5 called a "Robustness Kit" ?? They reckon If the serpentine belt breaks it goes thru the oem cover and gets tangled it the timing belt. Tried a couple of dealers with no luck

How does this repair hold up? VW describes that the sump should be removed to seal it properly when replacing the crankshaft seal.

Great videos, love this tutorial type style. Does the genuine kit come with new tensioner studs? Should these be replaced?

Perfect

Great job , is this the CXG engine ? Big like for your way of work

I did want to ask you a question if I may This is what's happening The coolent tank develops a vacuum so the coolent light comes on and when you look at the tank it looks low on coolent byt when you take the cap of the tank fills uk on its own I am really not sure as to whats happening Any ideas?

hello petite question comment l'on change des bougie de préchauffages sur van t6 transporteur 4 motions 2017 svp ? Frédéric

Great video by the way. Where did you get the locking pins, particularly the Crankshaft one from? Regards Stephen

what is that belt in the sump how often do you change that

Crankshaft bolt 180 nm/135 degrees.

great video man ! I have a 1.6 tdi EA288 engine and I already replaced 2 times that crankshaft seal , i know that they are prone to fail but I don't get it why . Based on the lip deformation , it looks like the crank shaft isn't centered . I replaced the 2 main seals and clutch last April , the gearbox side was good and dry but I did it anyway , yesterday I saw that the belt side is already starting to leak again , always from the lip\shaft . Can the crankshaft be off balance and only leaking on one side ? I can see a little of deviation\wobling on the v-belt pulley when running at idle .. could a bad sprocket or v-belt pulley throw the shaft a little bit off balance and wreck the seal ? the seal isn't lasting more than 4 or 5000 km , I already used oem and aftermarket seal (elring one)

I think I’ll pass doing mine. I’ll have to pay Vw the £750 they quoted me. Does the aux belt and tensioner get done at the same time?

Nice. Could you explain or show how you supported the engine not falling down?

Thank you for your video, I have decided on the strength of this viewing that it perhaps is not a job that I can do.

Hi guys, I have a T5.1 2,0TDI 2014 engine..replaced the timing belt everything looks fine but when i put the crankshaft locking tool in place.. the locking pin for the camshaft wont go in. aprroxemetly 1 mm out of the middle. is this oke ? the locking pin for the HD pomp goes in smoothly. what do you think. its not a tooth off. impossible.

Hey, nice video! I want to ask if you need to replace the bolts with a torque+degree rating like 70NM+90° ? Like the accessory belt tensioner? In the original volkswagen shop manual it says that you need the replace every bolt which has a degree rating ??? I wonder if anyone is doing that because it would be pretty expensive on bigger jobs.... Thanks for help ;)

Здравствуйте. Подскажите артикул и фирму набора фиксаторов коленвала, распредвала и шкива ТНВД. Данный набор подойдëт для дизеля TDI (VAG) CXFA, 2.0 л, 150 л.с? Авто - Фольскваген Каравелла Т6.1.

The replacment front crank seal sealing lip should be fitted inwards not pushed outwards from pushing it over the crankshaft

Great video! How long does the small toothed belt for the oil pump last? According to VW there is no specified limit, but some saya it is 300K km (180K miles). Does anybody have any experience on it? Thanks!

What is the toothed belt for at 16:40 going into the sump? Great vid Thank you

Hi.I have VW CC 2.0 tdi 2015 r line.What mileage you recommend change timing belt and water pump?Thanks

is same engine as Vw crafter?

Crankshaft seal should be fitted when sump is off, because if you don't then u will get the same leak after next 30-40k, which is wrong, the Crankshaft seal should last much longer than that... But still it's a nice video, thanks mate

is this same engine that's in vw golf 2.0 tdi same year? how many miles has it done ? thanks 👌 i was told for vw golf 2017 its 5 years. and vw said they only replace belt and water pump 😮

would you change the belt on a low mileage van, 30k, even if it was past the time range?

What make is your battery rachet please I’m currently looking for one but don’t want to pay snap on prices

1:00 Second sensor and he busts his knuckle. That's how it feels working on VWs.

Looks like lots of work ☹ need to do it on my T6 2015 150k its commin soon at 170k Thx for the great Video 🤘

how much would that job cost

but said for this crankshaft seal no need put oil on seal need instal dry or not?

What is the replacement interval for timing belt in 2.0tdi T6?

Hi, why you don,t renew the oilpump belt as well?

Nice tutorial you had some slovak guys in the workshop?

great video love the set by step tutorial style but you really need a microphone the audio is abysmal

What's the engine code, please?

Can you give me the number of the oil pump belt?

Mam aj ja T6. kod mototra CAAC 103kW rv 2016, 6qvalt, knešnemu dnu ma 301.000km ide jak šaleny,

is that a belt driving the oil pump behind the new crank seal housing? I wonder if that'll last forever? We have the 2.5 TDI in our t5 which had neither belt nor chain... That's the only real good thing about it

Hello good evening

What type of dog is that?

tecioner 20nm +45deg

❤🎉😊

the oil will run out of the sealant, you need to take off the oil pan

I want to work withe you before I day Hawe to centect you bro

They say that this no longer needs doing every 4 years

OMG what a ball ache

Could this be done by a DIY mechanic with basic skills?

Please fix your sound quality. We cant hear you. Music is great

this is why i buy cheap simple cars with a timing chain. i've driven 4 million miles in my life and never had a chain fail on any car or bike. had a few belts snap. cant buy cars with this expensive shite. here in sweden franchised dealers charge 400 quid an hour. i would sooner scrap the car than pay those crooks

so these need changing every 4 years? my work friend rekons every 8 years. who's right then

Yikes lots of work for a belt and water pump.

why would you buy one of these who puts a drive belt in the sump OMG

spoiled by abysmal sound, could hardly hear him most of the time.

O polak
