Does anyone know the story with the different tensioner bolt? I know there's two different types, due to the two different chain/cover set ups.. But which one will I need if I'm keeping the original chain set up, which I believe is twin, and swapping the upper timing covered to one from an obd2 coil pack? Will the obd2 tensioner bolt work with the original twin chain set up?
-
Thanks for that! Really detailed write up. To say I'm confused and feel like I've bitten off more than I can chew is an understatement haha. I had in my mind it.would be a case of swapping over the plugs and it would be good to go. I should really go down and have a look to see what I'm dealing with
-
Ace mate cheers for that. How do I know which ones are on the engine bay harness only? Or do I just match the colours?
-
Does anyone know if I have to swap the ecu to fusebox harness? Or some harness from the ecu. Some say no, just the engine bay loom, some say yes?! Also does anyone have a wiring diagram for an obd2 loom for plug identification?
-
I think vw parts international has them. Give them a look:)
-
Probably not massive. That is worst case scenario. Depends what sort of mileage you do, and how much past its best it really is.
-
Must admit, that thing looks and sounds nuts!! But for that price? Could easy get a decent second hand charger set up, more power and probably easier to tune too!
-
Looking for an obd2 upper timing chain cover, the part where the cam speed sensor sits. I think the part number is 021109127B. MUST be from an obd2 car:) Cheers
-
Snap. Engine rebuild. In a nut shell
-
Vw parts international have.. Think there abouts £22 a side for lemford once. Waw looking the other day:)

Cooz93 replied to bennyk's topic in Members Rides and Event Photos
Looking really good mate. Jealous of your engine set up!! -
Engine bay is looking lovely. Will sit real nice on those bbs's too! Top work mate
-
Plan is to start it this Sunday, will take more than one day so let me know how you get on next Monday!
-
Ah nice one. Cheers! All the bits should be arriving this week so will update with my progress
-
Is it on some sort of 'L' bracket or are there bolts that go straight through and secure it? Might be a simple question but I've only ever seen my dizzy vr6 haha
-
That's what I'm hoping. Can only really find threads on people doing it with corrado. But have read it's easier on the golf. Have you got a coilpack vr6? Was wondering how the coil pack itself is mounted..
-
I hope so mate. Praying everything goes smooth, never been a fan of electrics/wiring!
-
I've sourced a kit that includes a 2.9 synchro manifold which I'm told is better flowing than the standard obd1 inlet(similar to rads?) but will also work with the obd2 conversion.. Well I hope so haha. Dizzy obd1, converting to obd2 coil pack:)
-
Ah nice one. Will give them a call Monday. Cheers:)
-
Thanks Bealieboy. Decided I'm converting to obd2 before I remove the engine so I know it all works before I start taking it to bits. Wish me luck!
-
Think all I need now is the camshaft Speed ring, 'hall sender' I think it's called? Part number 021905163? Can anyone confirm these differ between obd1 and obd2, and where I could get one..
-
Guess I should be watching some wheeler dealers.. Aren't the doing a corrado vr6 soon?
-
Dub power do a decent manifold I'm I remember..

Taken the plunge and paid the man for that kit with everything in it. After a few messages I'm confident everything I need is there, so there should be no messing around! Little bit expensive but will make things alot easier!
-
Think ive sussed out the upper timing chain cover, where the cam speed/position sensor sits.. But as for the tensioner? unsure what difference between obd1 and obd2 on this..
