I’m trying to perform a leakdown test on my car right now but I can’t reach TDC. Is there a special method of turning the crank pulley? It doesn’t have one center bolt…
you can try rocking the car forward in gear to turn the motor
I did…what a pita!! There has to be an easier way!
There is, Audi (and other manufactures) have a tool just for this process. I don’t own one otherwise I’d let you borrow it or give you an item# etc.
you can stick a plastic dowel into the 1# cylinder to see when its at TDC due to having a difficult time seeing the timing mark.
The best way to roll the motor over. Try bumping the starter manually. Once you make a switch the rest is easy.
Let me know if this helps or you need more information. I can assist.
