i have a gti 8v valve cover to install but as i was looking for a pic and size of the bolts to it i read that the timing belt cover wont fit...

is this true?what should i do to make it fit?

my car is a daily so i dint have the possibility to have it stopped to check for that as for the bolts size so any help on this two would be great :arrow:

thanks

I cant see how you'd fit a 3 sprocket cover onto the 4 sprocket diesel

You have a injection pump in the way....I could be wrong but I know mine doesnt fit!

that's just my personal experiences
Good luck

Valve cover, not timing belt cover.

Guess I read it as GTI valve cover with Diesel timing cover. Guess we need some clarification.

yah I think it depends on how you read it, wheres the little comma ,?

english can be tricky with all out direct word meanings and slang.

I have a 1.6, don't know if the bolt config is different. But, I put a G60 cover on and it fit with a little grinding to fit under the timing cover.

The G60 cover fit my 1.6 with no mods at all. I did get the rubber gasket and stud conversion off eBay. The new AAZ, has no available cover so I powdercoated that.
