Installation Instructions for GFB Lightweight Crank Pulley Kit
Part # 2012, suits VAG 2.0T FSI engine (BPY), which is typically found in:
2006-2008.5 VW Golf Mk5, Jetta Mk5, Eos, Passat (B6), Audi A3 (8P), and 2008 Audi TT (8J)
Tools required:
Torx T20 driver
19mm socket or ring spanner (wrench)
5/8” open-end or adjustable spanner (wrench)
5mm hex key or similar diameter shaft (i.e. screwdriver or large nail) – this is to slide into the
belt tensioner to lock it in the open position – not absolutely necessary, but makes belt
removal/fitting much easier
6mm hex key for 2006-2007.5 models
10mm triple square (also known as XZN) driver for 2007.5-2008.5 models (see note below):
NOTE: 2007.5-2008.5 models use triple square bolts on the crank pulley. The correct 10mm
triple square driver MUST be used to loosen these bolts – do NOT be tempted to use a hex
or double hex driver (even though they may appear to fit) or you may destroy the bolts.
Triple square fasteners and drivers are so called because they have 12
points, formed by 3 squares overlaid on top of each other, resulting in
90 degree points as opposed to the 120 degree points on a hex or
double hex driver.
1. Raise vehicle to get access to the front right wheel and wheel arch area. Make sure to
properly support vehicle with jack stands.
2. Remove right front wheel.
3. Remove the lower section of the inner wheel arch guard (4 screws) and the small section of
the undertray that attaches to it (6 screws) using Torx (T20) driver.
