Seat Alhambra 'ADY' Engine cambelt change?

[timw1978]

Hi.

Would anybody be able to tell me what size and type of socket I need to buy in order to remove the crankshaft pulley bolt so that I can change the cambelt.

The car is a Seat Alhambra 1997 with the petrol ADY engine fitted. The crank bolt looks like a star socket?

Many thanks,
Tim.

You do not have to remove the crankshaft pulley bolt to replace the cambelt you will be giving yourself exttra work

Many thanks for letting me know. I was having a look on an electronic workshop manual I bought from some auction site, and it wasn't at all clear if the crank pulley had to come off or not, so this should make the job much easier

Thanks again.

Tim.
