    Timing Belt tools

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I'm planning on doing my wife's timing belt, 1.8, I'm going to get the kit from MJM

    http://www.mjmautohaus.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=6169_6170_6187_6190_6729_91 71&info=OEM_VAG_06B109119F.AMBL.3_Timing_Belt_Kit_ "PLUS"_Late_Models&products_id=2167

    I need to buy the 'special' tools. I'm thinking from ECS:

    Schwaben 9 Piece Hex Head Socket Set
    Schwaben 9 Piece Torx Socket Set

    http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/...category=Tools

    As for the metric sockets, is the 19MM the only one I need in 12 point?

    Where can I get this, as I'm sure my local AutoZone doesn't carry it.

    Anything else you could recommend, or where I could purchase these?

    special tools needed? that's news to me. Those hex/torx sockets can be found at any Sears/Lowes/Home Depot for sure, and most likely Autozone/Advance Auto etc as well.

    They're 'special' to me b/c I don't have to use any of them on my Mustang, i.e. not standard for what I've use.

    Re: Timing Belt tools

    if i remember correctly you need a 5mm and either a 7mm or 8mm hex as well as you definitely need a long 10mm socket and regular 13mm and 16mm sockets as well. you may need more, so im sure these guys will chime in.

    oh, and a few torx. i want to say T25, T27 or T30, but im not sure cuz im not near my tools so i cant check and its been a couple of months since i did mine. again, these guys will chime in.

    other than that, there is really nothing extra needed.
