Note  
To remove cylinder head, engine must first be removed  
⇒ page 3 .  
If an exchange cylinder head is installed, all the contact sur‐  
faces between the support elements, roller rocker fingers and  
the running surfaces of the cam shafts must be oiled before  
the cylinder head cover is installed.  
The plastic protectors fitted to protect the open valves must be  
removed only immediately before the cylinder head is fitted.  
When cylinder head or cylinder head gasket is renewed, the  
complete coolant must be renewed.

– Mark and remove poly V-belt. ⇒ page 18  
– Remove toothed belt guards on left and right.  
– Mark direction of rotation of toothed belt using a coloured felt-  
tip marker.  
– Turn crankshaft to TDC. Mark on toothed belt guard -A- must  
align with mark on V-belt pulley -B-.  
– Check position of camshaft sprockets. The larger holes in se‐  
curing plates -arrows- must be positioned to the inside and  
must be aligned with the horizontal camshaft centre line.  
Note  
If the larger holes in the securing plates are positioned to the out‐  
side of the camshaft sprockets, the crankshaft must be turned one  
revolution further in direction of engine rotation.  
lk  
– Remove sealing plug -arrow- from left side of cylinder block.  
The TDC drilling in the crankshaft must be visible (or able to  
be felt) in the sealing plug hole.  
– Carefully screw locking pin -3242- into drilling to stop in order  
prevent crankshaft from turning.  
– Remove middle part of toothed belt guard.

aside slightly.  
– First unscrew bolt -1- from oil filter housing. Then unscrew  
bolts -2- from cover for toothed belt tensioning element.  
– Remove cover.  
Note  
The toothed belt tensioning element is provided with oil damp‐  
ing. It can therefore only be pushed back slowly.  
Use locking pin -T40011- for securing the tensioning element.  
– If necessary, before tensioning align holes in housing and in  
piston of tensioning element using long nose pliers or thin wire.  
– Turn tensioning lever of toothed belt tensioning roller -1- in  
-direction of arrow- using hexagon key.  
lk

tensioning lever of the toothed belt tensioning element -2- has  
been pushed back so that the holes in the housing and the  
pistons align.  
– Insert camshaft clamp -T40005- into camshaft securing plates  
and loosen securing bolts by approx. 5 turns.  
– Remove camshaft clamp -T40005- again.

to idler roller of toothed belt tensioner -2- and then to tension‐  
ing roller -3-. After that, fit toothed belt to camshaft sprockets  
and coolant pump pulley as shown in the illustration.  
Note  
It should just be possible to turn the camshaft sprockets on the  
camshaft tapers.  
– Fit camshaft clamp -T40005- onto camshaft pulleys again.

using torque wrench -V.A.G 1410- with attached reversible  
ratchet -VAS 5122- and tensioner wrench -T40009- in anti-  
clockwise direction -arrow- to 4 Nm.  
– Tighten bolt -1- to 45 Nm in this position.

Test prerequisites  
Engine oil temperature must be at least 30°C.  
The battery voltage must be at least 11.5 V.  
All electrical consumers, e.g. lights and rear window heating,  
must be switched off.  
If the vehicle is equipped with an air conditioner, it must be  
switched off.  
The selector lever of the must be in „P“or „N“ position.  
Test procedure  
– Remove ignition coils with output stages ⇒ page 158 .  
– Disconnect all connectors from injectors.  
lk  
– Remove spark plugs using spark plug socket and extension  
-3122B- .  
– Check compression using compression tester -V.A.G 1763- .  
Note  
Using compression tester ⇒ operating instructions .  
– Have a second mechanic fully depress accelerator and crank  
engine.  
– Operate starter until tester shows no further pressure in‐  
crease.  
Compression pressures:  
New: 10…15 bar  
Wear limit: 7.0 bar.  
Maximum permissible difference between all cylinders: 3 bar  
– Insert spark plugs using spark plug socket and extension  
-3122B- and tighten to 30 Nm.  
After the test has been completed:  
– Connect Vehicle diagnosis, testing and information system -  
VAS 5052- .  
– Carry out vehicle system test ⇒ Vehicle diagnostic tester „Gui‐  
ded fault finding“.  
– Finish the vehicle system test so that any fault entries stored  
during assembly can be deleted automatically.  
– Generate the readiness code in combination with a road test.  
Observe applicable safety precautions during road test.  
– Carry out road test.  
– Then carry out vehicle system test again and rectify any faults  
which may have occurred.

WARNING  
Wear eye protection and protective clothing to avoid eye inju‐  
ries and chemical burns!  
– They must be cut through in the centre of the stem with a  
hacksaw. When doing this they must not come in contact with  
water!  
– When valves have been prepared as described, throw a max‐  
imum of ten valves into a bucket filled with water and step  
back!  
– Due to the contact with water a sudden chemical reaction will  
be initiated and the sodium fill will be burnt.  
– After this treatment, the valves can be scrapped as normal  
scrap.

Special tools and workshop equipment required

Procedure  
Note  
When repairing engines with leaking valves, it is not sufficient  
to rework or renew valve seats and valves. Particularly on high  
mileage engines, it is necessary also to check valve guides for  
wear ⇒ page 65 .  
Valve seats are only to be reworked to the extent required to  
yield a proper surface appearance. Before beginning to rework  
valve seats, calculate the maximum permissible reworking di‐  
mensions. If the reworking dimension is exceeded, the hy‐  
draulic valve clearance compensation can no longer be  
guaranteed and the cylinder head must be renewed.  
– Remove camshafts ⇒ page 56 .  
The max. permissible reworking dimension is calculated as fol‐  
lows:  
– Insert valve and press firmly against seat.

for the calculation.
