Slight misfire after timing belt replacement?

[Just_Ben]

That's the tool, the Audi number off my one is: T40005. Note though that although this tool LOOKS like the one for the 30v V6 it is different as the V8 is wider.... Must be correct tool. You also need Tool: 3424 the crank locking tool that screws into the block while setting belt.

The belt is pre tensioned with a torque wrench whilst tightenening the cam pulleys too - this is important to asure the belt tensioner can vary itself correctly as the engine temp alters.
They MUST follow ELSA to the letter..... Then it'll run like a dream.

Guys, how can I reduce the size of a word document?? I have copied the instructions from ELSA for this car into a Word doc. but the size limit is 19kb and the doc. is 750kb.......

Thanks again Ben.

Just to confirm, the tool required is in the link I posted, plus the crank tool? They are very different to the 32V one aren't they!

Not sure about the word doc I'm afraid, if it to do with my problem, you can send it directly to my email address if you want, I'll PM it to you.

Thanks again.

All tools req'd VERY different to the 32v!!!! Entirely different valve drive system

I have emailed you the ELSA doc....

Thanks very much for that Ben. I've printed it out and dropped it off at the garage.

I'll let you know what it's like when I get it back.

Cheers.

Just picked the car up and it's all sorted. They ordered the tool yesterday and completely re fitted everything, following the ELSA instructions to the letter.

Thanks to Conan and Ben for your help, especially to Ben for sending the ELSA document.

Cheers guys.

Just need to get it cleaned up and some pictures taken and I'll get it on here.

Antony.
