That helps me alot thank you and wait until you have to do the water pump the gear for the timing belt on the crank it floats buy the kit before doing it

[@torquespec9345]

Is it a Diamond Washer like on the 2.3 and 2.5? No Keyway on the Crank? I haven't done it yet on the 1.5T. What can you tell me? I have done the 2.3.

@@torquespec9345 yes sir, the crankshaft pulley, timing belt drive gear and both camshaft pulleys are NOT keyed at all. Its a trap.

Thank you so much boss I needed this there wasn’t any videos when I was trying to do this job months ago now I know I can do it

[@torquespec9345]

Hi @vegasrodriguez4050 Thanks so much for the feedback! It's the whole reason I made and posted the video, to save some of my unknown friends some time. Good luck with your project!!!!

[@torquespec9345]

@vegasrodriguez4050 please tell me. Did you have to remove the AC Compressor? Did you come in from the top? How did your job go?

[@raulrivas7227]

Yea thanks man u saved me a bunch of time

[@torquespec9345]

Hi @TheMone4000! Thanks Man! I really appreciate the feedback. The whole purpose of the video was to help others and maybe a little $. I haven't done another one of these yet. Please tell me, Did you do it all from the top? What did I do that you did NOT have to do? I hope the video gave you enough information to avoid half of what I did. Thanks Again My Friend!!!

[@torquespec9345]

How about you @TheMone4000, did you have to take out the AC Compressor? How did your job go?

[@TheMone4000]

[@KayXolani]

What did you do to loosen the nut since there’s no space for a socket or deep socket?

[@torquespec9345]

I'd like to help but I need more information. Which Nut?

[@KayXolani]

@@torquespec9345 The one connected to the thermostat itself

[@torquespec9345]

@@KayXolani Yeah the actual removal of the Thermostat is headache. Remove the nut from the stud then remove the stud. The thermostat housing and the stud come out together. For further clarification please watch the video.

[@torquespec9345]

try a wrench? Open End if need be. There's a tool to do it. Watch the video to see what I did.
