Removing
– Remove timing chain cover (top) → Chapter.

– Turn vibration damper to »TDC« position -arrow- using counterhold -T10355-.

l Notch on vibration damper must align with arrow marking on cover for timing chains
(bottom).
l The markings -1- on the camshafts must face upwards.

– Remove lower timing chain cover:

Passat CC → Chapter
Golf, Eos, Scirocco → Chapter

Tiguan → Chapter

Caution

The timing valve has a left-hand thread.

– Remove control valve using assembly tool -T10352- (engine codes CCZA, CCZB,
CCZC, CCZD, CDAA, CDAB: assembly tool -T10352/1-) in direction of -arrow-.

– Remove bolts -arrows- and detach bearing saddle.

– Press oil pump chain tensioner in direction of -arrow- and lock in place using locking
pin -T40011-.
– Remove oil pump chain tensioner -1-.

– Remove oil pump chain.

– Unscrew bolts -arrows-.

– Unscrew bolt -arrow-.

Depending on model, two different chain tensioners may be installed:

Variant 1

– Screw in valve lever -T40243--arrows-.

– Insert scriber or suitable screwdriver in hole of chain tensioner in direction of -arrow

1-, lift locking element for chain tensioner and hold it in that position.
– Slowly push valve lever -T40243- in -direction of arrow 2- and hold it in that position.

– Secure chain tensioner with locking pin -T40011-.

Variant 2
– Screw in valve lever -T40243--arrows-.

– Press together circlip -1- of chain tensioner and hold it in that position.

– Slowly push valve lever -T40243- in -direction of arrow- and hold it in that position.

– Secure chain tensioner with locking pin -T40267-.

All

– Remove valve lever -T40243-.

– Bolt camshaft clamp -T40271/2- to cylinder head and insert it in -direction of arrow 2-
between splines of chain sprocket. If necessary turn inlet camshaft in -direction of
arrow 1- using spanner.

– Bolt camshaft clamp -T40271/1- to cylinder head.

– Turn exhaust camshaft in -direction of arrow 1- using spanner and insert camshaft
clamp -T40271/1- in -direction of arrow 2- between splines of chain sprocket.

– Remove tensioning rail for timing chain -2-.

– Remove guide rail for camshaft timing chain -1-.

– Remove timing chain.

Installing
l Specified torques → Chapter.

Note

The timing chain links with coloured markings must be positioned at the markings on the
chain sprockets.

– Fit timing chain onto inlet camshaft.

– Fit timing chain onto exhaust camshaft.

– Fit timing chain onto crankshaft and hold it in that position.

– Fit tensioning rail for timing chain and tighten bolt -2-.
– Fit guide rail for camshaft timing chain and tighten bolts -1-.

– Turn exhaust camshaft in -direction of arrow 1-, remove camshaft clamp -T40271/1- in
-direction of arrow 2- from between splines of chain sprocket and relieve tension from
camshaft.
– Remove camshaft clamp -T40271/1-.

– Turn inlet camshaft in -direction of arrow 1-, remove camshaft clamp -T40271/2- in -
direction of arrow 2- from between splines of chain sprocket and relieve tension from
camshaft.
– Remove camshaft clamp -T40271/2-.

– Screw in and tighten bolts -arrows-.

– Attach bearing saddle and screw in bolts -arrows- hand-tight.

– Depending on model, remove locking pin -T40011- or locking pin -T40267-.

– Tighten bolts -arrows- for bearing saddle → Chapter.

– Install timing valve → Item.

Further assembly is basically the reverse of the dismantling sequence.
