Re: 1987 Audi 5000 Timing Belt
One more Question:
I have a few sockets for the the big 3/4 extension, but none fits
the big crankshaft pulley bolt.
So I need to get out and buy 3/4 socket for that bolt.
Anybody recall what the size is?
(it is for the l987 5000 5 cylinder engine)

I think I use a 1/2" drive socket and a breaker bar.
I know some of the early 4 cylinders took a 19mm 12 point socket, but I don't
do the 5 cylinders much.
I can try to measure a 1985 A5KS crank sprocket bolt on Monday, if you will
still need the info then.

It's a 27mm. Like the other poster, I've used a 1/2" socket with a
three foot breaker bar and a three foot section of pole-vaulting pole
at the end of that.

I actually want to buy the right size for the excisting 3/4 Drive
Socket,
John mentioned, it might be a 27mmm bolt, but I don't mind to wait
'til monday if you want to check the 1985 A5KS.
I realize it might be different for the 1987, but I still
appreciate the input.
Thanks again,

I'm an Elecrical Engineer & not very strong. My approach was rather
inelegant maybe, but worked for me. Just an 18" inch breaker bar on 1/2"
27mm
socket and a sledge hammer. It didn't need a massive swing, I did read
somewhere in group archives of removing one of the bellhousing fixing bolts
and inserting it from underneath the car through a hole in the bellhousing
to lock the flywheel when at TDC (or thereabouts ... can't actually
remember.)
http://groups.google.co.uk/groups?hl...reeserve.co.uk
I managed to do this and it seemed a more "solid" way of locking the
flywheel than using a cold chisel on the starter ring teeth for my brutal
attack with the sledge hammer.
Good luck however you tackle the job

No I think that they should be the same.
I did an Audi 100 and it seemed the same, but different sprockets and timing
belt!
Here is a writeup for a '91 200q20v
http://members.aol.com/audipage/timing.html
You don't have to do all of the body disassembly to my knowledge though!
I will check and let you know what the size is on the 85 5000S!
