Brief Overview

This comprehensive locking tool set is engineered for independent workshops and dealerships servicing VAG group vehicles (VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat) from 1997–2004. The kit provides the essential alignment and locking components required for safe camshaft, crankshaft, fuel pump, and belt tensioner work across a broad range of petrol and diesel engine variants. Whether you're managing routine timing belt replacements or complex engine overhauls, this set eliminates the need for multiple tool purchases and reduces downtime per job. For shops managing larger TDI fleets, complementary options like specialized 1.6/2.0 TDI locking tools or comprehensive timing adjustment kits are available to round out your VAG service capability.
