* Hot Weather, Stop-And-Go Driving
* Extensive Idling
CAMSHAFT TIMING BELT
CAUTION: Failure to replace a faulty camshaft timing belt may result
in serious engine damage.
The condition of camshaft drive belts should always be
checked on vehicles which have more than 50,000 miles. Although some
manufacturers do not recommend belt replacement at a specified
mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A camshaft drive
belt failure may cause extensive damage to internal engine components
on most engines, although some designs do not allow piston-to-valve
contact. These designs are often called "Free Wheeling".
Many manufacturers changed their maintenance and warranty
schedules in the mid-1980's to reflect timing belt inspection and/or
replacement at 50,000-60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules in
this manual reflect these changes.
Belts or components should be inspected and replaced if any
of the following conditions exist:
* Cracks Or Tears In Belt Surface
* Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth
* Oil Contamination
* Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners
* Incorrect Tension Adjustment
Inspect camshaft timing belt condition every 20,000 miles.
Replace belt as necessary.

INTRODUCTION
Removal, overhaul and installation procedures are covered in
this article. If component removal and installation is primarily an
unbolt and bolt-on procedure, only a torque specification may be
furnished.
CAUTION: When disconnecting battery, obtain and record radio
anti-theft code. If wrong code is entered into radio after
power is restored, radio will become inoperable.

Volkswagen EGR Function Testing
All Models
EGR VALVE (EXCEPT DIESEL)
1) Run engine at idle speed. Using a hand-held vacuum pump,
apply 12 in. Hg to EGR valve. Engine should run rough or stall. If
not, check EGR valve pintle for movement. If EGR pintle is moving, EGR
port is plugged. If EGR valve does not function, replace EGR valve.
2) To check EGR port vacuum supply, connect vacuum gauge to
EGR vacuum line using a "T" fitting. Start engine and increase engine
speed to about 3000 RPM. Vacuum gauge should indicate vacuum. If
vacuum is not present, vacuum source is plugged. Repair as necessary
and repeat test.
