How to phase the Fiat 600

Model: Fiat Seicento MK 1 - Years 1998-2010
Part: Timing belt

When replacing the timing belt, timing is absolutely essential, i.e. aligning the references between the camshaft and the crankshaft to ensure synchronism between the upward and downward movement of the pistons with respect to the opening and closing of the valves: an error in the timing will therefore cause a delay or an advance in the detonation sequence in the cylinders, compromising the regular functioning of the engine which, in addition to not working correctly, will consume much more fuel; This is why there are notches between the toothed pulleys and the monobloc to keep perfectly aligned.

How to deactivate the safe lock on a Volkswagen Golf.

The safe lock is indeed an anti-theft system that prevents thieves from accessing the car. This device locks the doors, both externally and internally, when the driver activates the central locking remote control after leaving the vehicle. To permanently disable it, it is necessary to use a diagnostic program such as VCDS that we will connect to the vehicle through the ODBII port. Then wait for the connection and recognition of the control unit and then select the blocks present and locate the safe lock to disable it. And the job will be completed.
