VAG 1.6/2.0 CR TDi Timing Lock Tool Set

Brief Overview

This is a specialized timing lock and engine alignment tool kit designed specifically for VAG 1.6 and 2.0 CR TDi diesel engines. The set enables precise camshaft and crankshaft positioning during timing belt service, cylinder head work, and engine assembly operations. The complete kit arrives in a molded hard plastic carry case with precision-cut foam inserts, protecting components during transport and storage. If your shop handles VAG diesel platforms, this is an essential tool for maintaining proper engine timing—consider pairing it with complementary TDi engine timing alignment kits for broader VAG diesel coverage or an additional camshaft and crankshaft positioning system for redundancy across multiple work bays.
