Sorry if this has been covered before - feel free to link to it…. but

I'm not sure how to read the flywheel TDC mark on the 80 TDI, and the Haynes (Audi 100 version) is no help. There's a 0 on the flywheel and the viewing window looks like it's deliberately divided in the middle. It looks like the hole should be bigger, so intuitively I think TDC is when the 0 mark is half way hidden by the edge of the window.

Please can someone tell me if I'm 'doing it wrong'.

Thanks

That's the way it is for the 5 cyl cars

So if you can see half the 0, you're at TDC. Right?

I was looking for this too! Does it look like this? (from an ACE 16v engine)

I can't see the timing mark in that pic, unless it's right at the top of the right hand hole...
