I was replacing a timing belt on my 2005 Jetta TDI (BEW engine). I replaced it, but I wasn't able to remove a part of the engine mount (the one which is directly bolted to the right side of the engine), so I worked around it. I tried ro rise, than lower the engine, but I couldn't get it out.
What is a recommended procedure for removing that part of the mount?
While replacing a water pump, the coolant spilled over the bottom half of the timing belt components (i.e. crankshaft sprocket, idler and tensioner). The idler with tensioner were replaced so I am not worried, byt what about the crankshaft sprocket? Is the coolant going to have any effect on it? I used the compressed air to blow the coolant off as much as I could....
Thank you for an advice!
