AST5160

Diesel 1.2 / 1.6 / 2.0 TDi Common Rail Camshaft Installation Kit (Belt Driven)

VAG 1.2, 1.6 and 2.0 'EA189', twin camshaft, belt driven diesel engines have a single belt sprocket and a pair of drive gears at the rear of the camshafts. One of the drive gears is spring loaded to eliminate lash in the camshaft drive.

The camshafts are retained in the cylinder head by a camshaft carrier into which the bearing surfaces are machined. It is critical that the aluminium carrier frame and camshaft assembly are aligned and installed correctly to prevent damage and premature failure of the bearing surfaces.

AST5160 included the required tools to ensure that the camshafts are installed correctly. Without the use of correct tools the camshaft carrier and cylinder head bearing surfaces may be damaged.
