hey guys,

I just had a fun last few weeks, i tired to start my c5 A6 quattro but i had no fire. Come to find out that i had a blown timing belt. We got a kit from ECS and did the service. After finishing the change in two days we got the car to fire up we still have a few problems. We have a few codes that we had scanned and found out that we have 1 - 5 bent valves in cylinder #5. We want to take it to the next step and replace the valves but our question is if the valves are manually adjustable? Ill have more information later but just a quick question.


Thanks guys,
Dennis

 

The valves are not manually adjustable.

What codes are you getting to think that the valves are bent as opposed to a bad coil pack or connection? Normally, from what I have experienced, when you pop a timing belt you bend valves in more than one cylinder and you don't normally bend all five in one cylinder.

How did you find out that the valves are bent from codes?
