Post by UB3RATL4Sf00 »

Okay, so I am finishing up a rebuild, but I don't know where the timing mark is on the flywheel of the 1.9l TDI, anybody have pictures our link to a timing guide?

Theres some real good info and a picture in the following link. Note that some aftermarket flywheels were produced with no mark for awhile. If thats the case you'll need to pull #1 (or 4) glow plug or injector and find TDC, then mark the flywheel.
