Has anyone replaced the timeing belt (Bentley calls it a drive belt) themselves. The local VW dealer service dept. is months behind and they have already put me off twice. I realize that the belt tension is very important. Is the tool recomended in the Bently book avaible, is there a better tension tool? I have also been told to replace the tensioner pulley when I do this. Is there anything else that I should keep in mind? Robert Crawford
