1992 Audi 100 Timing Belt Parts and Q&A

• Q: How to inspect and measure the timing belt after removing the upper timing cover on 1992 Audi 100?

  A: Release the spring clips and remove the upper timing cover from the front of the engine. Inspect the timing belt for signs of excessive wear, fraying, cracking, and damage, while also checking for traces of oil that may have come from a faulty oil seal. The full length of the timing belt should be checked by turning the engine with a spanner on the crankshaft pulley bolt. Using a steel rule or vernier calipers, measure the width of the timing belt in several places; if it is less than 22.0 mm at any point, the timing belt must be renewed. On completion of the check, refit the upper timing cover.
