Is it posible that it brakes in the effort of unscrew this bolt? Mine was a fu***ing hard thing to unbolt it!
The Workshop manual for the AAN engine (same in this point with the ABY-ADU says:
Toos Against holder 3256 and tighten tool 2079! What are these?
Screw Torque with the Special "Schwingungsdaempfer"(is the plastic this for the vibrations in front of the Pulley) tool 350 NM
Torque without the special tool for the vibration damper 450 NM !
Screw with gasket seal AMV 188 001 02 tighten
So my question is why so much dufference between those two?
The 3256 is the cranck locking tool, this holds the cranck locked in one postion as you torque the cranckbolt.
The 2079 is an extension tool designed by Audi due to the fact that torque wrenches capable of 450nm is quite rare and expensive ( even worse 15 years ago ). By using this extension tool, torque on the wrench itself is reduced to 350nm. If you use this tool or not doesnt matter as long as the endresult is 450nm at the cranck bolt.
thanks everybody for your help just phoned up and got all the bolts does anybody have a tool i can borrow to fit the crank pully back on its a 3b engine im doing it at the garage meet
