What is the timing is supposed to be for the 2.0T, or where I can find it?

Is the timing belt hard to replace, will I need a special tool?

grab a manual at your parts store. T-Belt is a little bit of a bitch but not too bad, if its your first plan for a little time. I had to do a head on mine.
the only crappy thing I remember was the water pump is the tensioner, i think.

Just a note the timing is marked on the catalyst or emissions sticker that is on the car under the hood or maybe on the shock tower.This list the vehicle emissions info.I know 1st gens have it on the shock tower,2nd maybe the same to list the timing for ur car specifically.Hope this helps at least so u can see the information that should be there.

timing 10 deg before TDC.

timing mark on the crank (down) you'll see what i mean

cam mark up, you'll also see it



watch for flying sparks!!!
