V6 Cam locking bar

[hartster]

Does anyone have one of these, for the 2.8 V6 (AAH) motor. I'm guessing that the 2.6 V6 uses the same tool. It connects to the two cam sprockets to correctly position the cams fitting timing belt, or in my case replacing cam seals.

Need one urgently to be 100% sure of timing after head work, otherwise have to rely on marks.

There's no key on the camshaft to lock the sprocket in place, so no failsafe way of keeping the sprocket in postion w.r.t. the camshaft. I've got mine marked up but still would prefer the VAG tool.

is this for the a4 a6 and passat v6s if so just make your own make before you pull the belt of we do heaps of these and work and we don't have a tool.
