Glad you used lock tools. You could always reinstall tools to check. But if pin was in crank and bar installed hard to screw that one up for belt.
Never had a problem with Continental belts in the 15+ years I've done timing belts, at recommended interval replacements as directed.
For my vehicle, a VW Tiguan 2018 2.0L 4Motion diesel SEL model, I opted to replace the timing/Axillary belts (due to a squeal noise) at 36,000 miles. As shown in the attached photographs, the timing and auxiliary belts were showing signs of wear.
I changed the original timing belt on my 2011 TDI Golf at 192,000 miles and the belt still looked good.
They recommend 10 years or 120k miles I pushed mine till 11years and 160k miles but when I removed my original belt it had a significant crack in it from dry rotting
I have a continental timing belt with 180K km on it. Yes it’s time to change it, but it still looks good. They are good belts, my engines life depends on it.
I've always bought the Continental branded ones and had good luck with them.
Era somente para trocar correia dentada e depois de eu deixar lá, o mecanico viu q tinha algumas coisas para trocar como velas, disco de freio e pastilha de freio q estava bem gastas(na verdade ja estava batendo ferro com ferro), bandejas de suspensão + bucha(barulho embaixo do carro),correia do alternador e da bomba d´agua, bomba d´gua, troca do liquido de arrefecimento, um dos pneus traseiros estava com prego e aproveitei já fiz o balanceamento,rodizio dos pneus e alinhamento e isso deu 7000 reais.
I have read a lot about the wet timing belt issues, and still went ahead to purchase a 308SW with 85KM...for the 1.2 Puretech, I believe companies like continental contitech have produce a CT1228 belt specifically to tackle oil on the belt, and I believe it's important we use the correct and good quality oil..
Posibil sa fi pățit ceva asemanator cu piese cumparate de la Bardi. Distribuție schimbată de 2 ani și 6-7 luni, m-a lăsat in drum după 35k km. Din câte știu ar fi trebuit sa țină 4-5 ani sau 60k.
