Hi all, about to undertake investigate and fix (if possible) TB on 2001 Jetta TDI who's TB jumped a tooth or two - one question...is there any value to the timing belt tools/cam locks if setting a new belt after the cam is out of alignment?

thanks folks

Set the camshaft with the #1 lobes up like a V. You still need the tools to fine tune its position for the timing belt.

You must have the cam alignment tool and the IP pin to do the job. I made my own cam alignment tool and used a 15/64 drill bit for the IP pin.
