Description

Engine Timing Tool Set for VW/Audi EA888 1.8/2.0 TSI/TFSI Petrol Engines (2006-2013)

Brief Overview

This is a purpose-built engine timing kit designed specifically for camshaft and crankshaft positioning on VAG Group 1.8L and 2.0L turbocharged petrol engines (EA888 family, 2006–2013 production). The set addresses a critical service requirement: preventing valve timing drift during belt/chain service, cylinder head work, or timing system repairs. If your shop regularly services Audi A4/A5/A6, VW Golf/Passat/Tiguan, Seat Leon, or Skoda Octavia with these engines, this kit is a strategic investment that eliminates costly downtime from improvised locking methods. It also pairs well with comprehensive TDi diesel timing kits for shops handling the full VAG model range.

Key Features

  • 9-Piece Precision Tool Set: Includes camshaft lock, crankshaft seal installer, chain tensioner device, tensioner pins, camshaft pins, variable valve timing control caps, lower timing chain cover ring, and tensioner roller pin.
  • Factory-Spec Design: Tools engineered to exact OEM specifications for EA888 engine family, ensuring safe, damage-free positioning.
  • Organized Hard Case Storage: Blue plastic carry case with molded foam inserts keeps all components organized, protected, and ready for field or shop use.
  • Multiple Adapter Options: Includes adapters in various sizes and finishes (silver, black, gold-plated) to accommodate different camshaft pulley and locking ring configurations.
  • Quick-Release Mechanisms: Black adjustable holding clamps and spring-type pin tools enable fast setup and removal without risk of engine damage.

  • Margin-Friendly: One-time purchase with no consumable costs; supports multiple billing hours per job (belt/chain service, head work, seal replacement).
  • Competitive Positioning: Differentiates your shop as properly equipped for European marque service, a key selling point for Audi, VW, and Skoda specialist positioning.
  • Durable, Professional-Grade: All components are hardened steel or precision-molded polymer, designed for decades of shop use—minimal replacement costs.
