To replace the timing belt on your Audi 80, you will need to first remove the engine covers and accessories. Then, use a crankshaft pulley tool to hold the crankshaft in place while you loosen and remove the old timing belt. Make sure to align the timing marks on the new belt before installing it and torque the tensioner to the proper specifications.

Replacing the timing belt on an Audi 80 can be a daunting task, but with the right tools and patience, anyone can do it. Start by disconnecting the battery and draining the coolant. Then, remove the accessory belt and crankshaft pulley. Finally, make sure to follow the manufacturer's recommended steps for installing the new timing belt.

As someone who has replaced the timing belt on my own Audi 80 several times, I recommend setting aside a full day for this task. Don't rush through any steps and make sure to double check all timing marks before starting the engine. And remember, always use high quality parts and follow the torque specifications for all bolts.
