Model: Volkswagen Passat B6, 3C - Years 2005-2010
Part: Service warning light

In this guide, we will see the useful information for disassembling and replacing the timing belt of the Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TFSI; the manufacturer declares that on this engine, the belt must be replaced every 90,000/100,000 kilometers or five years. Subsequently, the video illustrates the process of disassembling and replacing the belt, lifting the vehicle and removing the crankshaft pulley (disconnecting the V-belt first); we remove the distribution cover to access the belt, taking the necessary references for replacement. We install the new original timing belt!
