225 lower timing belt cover

Discussion in 'Mechanical - Engine, Gearbox, Exhaust etc' started by discoken, Oct 28, 2020.

  1. Has anyone done a cam belt change with the engine still in the car? If so, what's the secret to getting the lower timing cover off. There's 2 bolts on the front side but appears to be a hidden bolt in the centre. Any tips on which tools you used to remove it. I think its a 10mm bolt. Thanks.
     
  2. I just checked the manual and the diagram only shows the 2 bolts. The lower cover is being held by something. Maybe it might just be a clip. Can anyone confirm this?

    There is a side cover that has silver foil on it, there is a 8mm headed bolt under that
     
  4. Thanks Ian. Found it once I got that foil off.
