I used the guide from this sites how to's. The only tricky part i found was, to get the mirror mounting plate of the motor assembly. Before when put in rewerse the mirror just wiggled up and down, Now i works perfectly =)

Yes it would. If i only want to change the timing chain and guides, and not mess around with the vanos units. Do i only require the cam lock and flyweel pin Tools then? I have found a site where to buy special Tools from and what they call master tool set cost 4500sek 530 dollars, that includes Everything. But they also sell only the camshaft locks for more than half of the price.

After a lot of thinking about the fricking chain and guides, i browsed the net and found the special tools needed on ebay. So i am going to do the complete chain assembly 😎

Left off here for the day, look at the video in this post, should the powersteering pump sound like this? There aint no play in the wheel, just this sound when turning back and fourth
