How good are you with cars? Have you done any cambelts? Like Citigolf?
its not that hard, you just use the normal timing marks and double check yourself in VCDS, if you dont have VCDS there is alot of guys on the forum that would help you out. Myself Included. Where are you based?

I leave these jobs up to guys with far more experience than me but if you tackle it yourself, make sure that you replace everything that needs replacing when changing the cambelt.
