Timing belt change

Hey thank you this is great advice, but atm I cannot source a crank pulley -- or a crank bolt from anywhere, or that washer. Am I literally out of options here? :/

(I can't find the bolt on AT at the moment. Eyes getting fuzzy. If they haven't got it anymore, I have a Febi one that I bought before I got one from AT

VAG N90498002 (part threaded)
or VAG N0101432 (Febi 17230) (part threaded)

or BMW 11231736585 (part threaded)

(These parts have no thread on the small section nearest the bolt head, the rest is threaded till the end of the bolt - all bolt heads are the same for all shown)

or The 110mm long Febi (VAG N90498002, Volvo 9186595) is fully threaded

I googled the part number of the crank pulley, you are right terry does them, but i cant get it till next week.

James's pulley (Terrybullwon) is WAY stronger than oem (oem is basically a service item, James's is fit and forget.)

Wait for his

his pulley is the best out there what you can buy. i had them all and believe me its worth the money.

[Mikes2]

I always re-use the bolt if it's not damaged and the threads are clean. It's not a requirement to replace it

[Bowie69]

Indeed, it's not a service item, I've never changed mine.

How much are James’s bottom pulleys & are they still available?

Drop terrybullwon a message. Also check on ebay too. They are about £110 i think

[s2driveruk]

Ok so whats the deal with the diamond washer...? Never seen this before, is is treated in a particular way during production or something equally as funky or is it just dimensions...? If these are NLA, maybe we can get some made and hold a stock on the forum?

It goes on the nose of the crankshaft. I have one for sale
