– Screw dial gauge adapter - T10170/A- into spark plug hole to  
stop.  
– Insert dial gauge - VAS 6079- with extension - T10170A/1- as  
far as it will go and secure in place with self-locking nut  
-arrow-.  
– Slowly turn crankshaft in engine DOR to maximum needle de‐  
flection. Once maximum needle deflection is reached (reverse  
point of needle), piston is at »TDC«.  
Note  
If the crankshaft has been turned beyond »TDC« turn engine an‐  
other two revolutions in direction of engine rotation. Do not turn  
engine in opposite direction of engine rotation!  
– Measure distance from left outer edge of web -A- to marking  
-B- on inlet camshaft.  
Specification: 61 to 64 mm.  
– If the specified value is achieved, measure the distance be‐  
tween the marking on the inlet camshaft -B- and the marking  
on the exhaust camshaft -C-.  
Specification: 124 to 126 mm  
Note  
An offset of one tooth results in a deviation of approx. 6 mm from  
the specified value. If an offset is found, the timing chain must be  
re-fitted.
