'02 AUDI A4 QUATTRO, 4 CYCL.
engine overheated
engine shut off
timing belt teeth shredded off
water pump seized, unable to turn by hand or with channel locks
crank turns over easy, cam turns over easy without any problems
want to do compression check
starter spins without engaging the flywheel
bendix doesnt seem to be working
is there a safety cut out that is stopping everything from working??

 

Can somebody give me any advice to this post???? Please

 

if you're timing belt is shredded the topside of your motor is most likely valve salad.

as for the starter, it is conceivable that it was damaged during the whole timing/waterpump/overheating fiasco but trying to diagnose what might be the problem, with the information you have provided is like asking me if I think that mole is cancerous

good luck

 

The engine is going to turn over very easy because it no longer has compression. Time to remove cylinder head & have it rebuilt or exchange it for a good one.
BTW also do the timing belt , water pump , thermostat, all rollers & tensioner.

 

THANKS GUYS, im doing a compression test this morning, i will let you know more, but i was affraid of this being the case...

 

did u drive you car even though it was telling you it had no coolant or did your timing belt just tear on you? ? It sounds like you are going to be in need of some major work.
