Sykes Pickavant 02253000 VW STUD TORQUE ADAPTOR

Product Number: 02253000

SCHAEFFLER APPROVED Suitable for most 1.9 2l TDi VAG applications Suitable for M8 Fine M8 to M10 coarse stepped studs For use on the steel timing belt tensioner mounting stud which screws into the aluminium cylinder head ‚¬¹ The mounting studs are prone to seizing due to steel to aluminium corrosion bond which can occur between the stud and cylinder head due to oxidisation. When this occurs, the stud proves difficult to remove without the correct tool When replacing the stud it must be torqued to the manufacturers recommended value, failure to do so can result in the stud working loose and releasing the timing belt tensioner or vibrating with the cyclic stress and snapping off. Either of these eventualities can lead to catastrophic engine damage
