Timing Belt Gear Main Bolt for 1.8T and 2.0L TFSI Engines
Gear wheel main bolt from the renowned U.S. manufacturer ARP for reinforcement of the timing belt drive in 1.8T or 2.0L TFSI engines.
With this bolt, you circumvent the greatest weakness of Audi and VW engines: The connection of the timing belt drive to crankshaft! The original parts allow a high degree of tolerance, so the guide groove on the crankshaft quickly shears off. Especially in the case of tuned engines, this can happen quickly due to the enormous output.
Our bolt has a higher clamping force and meets the aviation standard. It is made of high-strength steel and can even be reused. Perfect for top tuning demands!
Properties of the ARP main bolt for the gear wheel:
10 % greater clamping force
Meets the aviation standard
Quality steel
Hardened
Reusable
Plug & play (same wrench size)
In-house development, together with ARP
Suitable for:
1.8T 20V engines (only for transverse engines, e.g. in the Golf MK4)
2.0L TFSI engines (such as AXX, BWA, BWE, BPY, CDL)
Not suitable for 2.0L TSI chain-driven engines such as in the Golf MK6 with 211 hp
Not suitable for 1.8T longitudinally mounted engines such as the AEB engine
