VW Golf 4 1.4 16V: Valve Cover Disassembly & Gasket Repair - Step by Step Guide

Hello. I would like to take off the VW Golf 4 valve cover. I am not sure I have to unbutton the valve as well? Has anyone can info, step by step, what with what? I need to glue the gasket lightly, because the oil "flies" to the candle.

The lid is at the same time the housing (bearing) of the camshafts, you must remove the toothed belts. Do not put on silicone, use a special sealer, eg AFD 2000 Elringa

As far as I know, this cover is immediately attached to the rollers.

If I take off gears then how to set the timing?

You download the lid.

What decanter?

That's how it looks without the rollers and horses, and one.

You download the top cover or cover it as you call it.

It's already time, two drill bits 8 block the shafts, shaft on sign and download the pillow and then the tensioners and straps, cool.

For the first time it was not easy but it went, I recently unbuttoned the timing in VW 2D 1.6 and it was 10 years ago. It's a bit different here, but if you ever need a hint, I'll help. Thank you for previous hints.

I have to do the same in my Audi A2, because I also have wet in two candles. The 1.4 16 AUA engine is practically the same unit. With what moment did you tighten the screws in the cover? Tightening as typical in the head - ie from the center to the edges in a spiral? Did you exchange the timing belt or the belt itself? Did you put everything on the old parts? Because I read that the strip after the photo is only suitable for throwing out - you have to put up a new one (I would not like to do it because 40,000 km ago I changed the timing set).
The leak did not come back? What seal did you use? Have you had any problems during this work?
Thanks in advance for your reply and best regards

It's best to replace the timing with a new one, but there are those who only exchange the belt and drive. I cover and the heads have been roughened and I gave a car silicone. Nothing leaks. After all, I did not even have any gasket, what I saw was just some glue.
