Transporter T4 Diesel Fuel Pump Timing 2.5tdi

[@richardunderwood5265]

Brilliant vid, clear and precise. I'm confident I could follow this after a few more viewings. Thanks for takingvthe time to helps us with our ageing volvo lumps.

[@shedworxxx]

Happy to hear that you found it useful. I try to keep my videos straight to the point and as short as possible.

[@richardunderwood5265]

Absolutely brilliant, I have a cylinder head gasket to replace and have been wondering about the fuel pump. This is such a well made tutorial, simple and clear. Thank you very much for producing it.

[@shedworxxx]

@@richardunderwood5265 thanks for watching. I made the video after I replaced the head gasket and couldn’t find a decent tutorial on KZbin myself.

Great video. Got an LT35 SDI… have had much fun and games trying to tune the pump. Finally got some feedback from a forum I joined. Basically the wrong timing point described in a ‘manual’ I had bought. Van starts on the button but starts to run poorly after about 5 mins… anyhoo..when I get back home I will hopefully sort that with VCDS..

[@Stainless316L]

You can also fine adjust timing on the idler pully if I remember correctly.

[@olukayodeokunowo4631]

Thank you so much for this great video. I really learned alot. More grease to your elbow and more wisdom always.

[@thepeasant7465]

Brilliant tutorials videos, I will try to setup mine soon....

[@jurrehenni5166]

Very useful, thanks a lot 👍🏼

[@Davegt535]

Hey I did the timing from this vid, van sounds great plenty if power but a bit smoky following the belt change, can this be sorted with the vag computer? I've checked it 2 times seems OK? Where in Ireland are you based? Would love to get mine DOE done and start my camper build!

[@shedworxxx]

You might be able to make a fine adjustment on vcds for the smoke but, on older diesels it can sometimes just be the nature of the beast.

[@Davegt535]

Are u based in dub? Would you be able to look at it or recommend anyone to look at it?

[@shedworxxx]

@@Davegt535 sorry pal I appreciate the offer but I can’t help you with that.

This Engine was delivered in different Types - mine is an Type ANJ and the procedere is slightly different

[@teorrotariu2486]

I have a d5252t vag engine on a Volvo s70 I guess is the same procedure to timing the pump?. 2.5 tdi. Thanks for video and explanation!

[@shedworxxx]

I’m not too familiar with Volvos so I can’t confirm it’s the same engine but please let me know if you find it is the same engine.

[@teorrotariu2486]

@@shedworxxx it is the same engine. The same. Engine at T4. THANKS FOR INFO

[@lukskywalker834]

nice and clean. Small update, just finishing my timing and according to FSM camshaft weel bolt on pump side 160Nm.

[@shedworxxx]

Thanks for watching

[@G433E]

Very good accurate infomation! I will try this on my d5252!

[@iscog]

Great video!!! One question!!! To start you need to refill with diesel the pump? Thanks!!!

[@shedworxxx]

@@iscog to start the engine?

[@iscog]

Yes, to start the engine!!!

[@shedworxxx]

@ the whole fuel system will have to be primed before the engine will start bro.

Don’t see a part number on it but I left a link in the description to where I bought it from.

Im doing one at minute what size is that adjuster that inside pump is it an allen key

whats the timming setting for a 2.5 is it the same

This engine is a 2.5.

[@markthompson1134]

Where do you get the gauge from

[@shedworxxx]

Check the pinned comments bro, I posted a link.

[@minarellip611]

Ciao Do you think that the adjustment of the AA 2.5 5-cylinder naturally aspirated engine is the same procedure ?

[@shedworxxx]

I’m not familiar with that engine but I would hazard a guess that it’s very similar

[@minarellip611]

@@shedworxxx grazie

[@noddy8064]

You mean AAB 2.4 5cylinder with throttle cable ?. Then no, as there is no tensioners on the pump belt so you dial it to 97 by rotating the pump

[@ayobamimoses677]

I can i do this without the dial gauge please

[@shedworxxx]

Thanks for watching friend. Unfortunately the most accurate way to adjust the pump is with the dial gauge…

[@TheOffroader7458]

I just use vagcom to adjust pump timing when it running

[@shedworxxx]

Of course! That’s the best way to fine tune it after manually adjusting the pump.

[@Real_Venture_Out]

Hi mate, I recently had the two belts replaced on my T4 2.5 TDI, it’s now making a rattling noise, it’s going to a VW specialist next week, could the rattling be due to the diesel pump out of time? Or cambelt a tooth out? It doesn’t do it all of the time, most noticeable around 1100rpm. Cheers 👍

[@mikeharrison5087]

Check crank damper for splits/movement you can't always see it but it's a metallic noise sounds awful. good luck 🍀

[@haraldpost]

Thanks for the video. But I must say I don't think it is a good example to use a wise grip as counter hold. The cam bolt is very tight so you were putting a lot of twisting force on the camshaft. I would advice anyone to counterhold at the cam sprocket wheel using some camshaft sprocket counter holding tool. What you are measuring with the gauge is pump lift. If you let go of the pump wheel it will simply slide back to zero on the gauge. That would not hurt a thing.. So there was no upside to locking up the pump before undoing the cam bolt... the last thing you'd want is some of that cambolt torque to transfer to the locked up pump. I only lock the pump when it is set at the correct prelift. Then I set the tensioner and roller in a middle setting and carefully tighten the camshaft bolt (with counter hold). Then I release the pump lock before fully tightening the camshaft bolt (I think mine was 100 nm).

[@shedworxxx]

100% agree with you. If I had a cam holding tool I would of used it.

[@alwynjones-ht4kx]

Good video thx, just done mine following your info ,though the sprocket on fuelpump end of camshaft is tightened to 160 nm according to my Haynes manual.

[@josemanuellestonrey101]

good explanation , thank you

[@shedworxxx]

You’re welcome, Thanks for watching!

[@noddy8064]

10.9 bolts are 100 nm and you should fine tune the pump with the tensioners and a scan tool 35 to 73 at working temp

[@motorheadmaximus]

Is the bolt for the camshaft definitely 70nm ?

[@shedworxxx]

@@motorheadmaximus not sure off the top of my head. It’s been awhile since tightening one. Best to check with Google.

[@motorheadmaximus]

@shedworxxx Haynes manual says 160nm

[@alwynjones-ht4kx]

Defo 160nm

[@Yuri_Bodlovic]

did you adjust with the vcde later?

[@shedworxxx]

Checked it, there was no need to adjust on vcds.

[@Yuri_Bodlovic]

@@shedworxxx you mean you didnt need to use the vcds or there is no option?
