Product Description

The Moca Timing Gear Crank Z23/42 is a crucial component in the engine timing system for selected Audi and Volkswagen models. This timing gear is responsible for synchronising the crankshaft rotation with the camshaft, ensuring efficient engine operation and accurate valve timing. Constructed with precision-machined metal and featuring both helical and straight cut teeth, it is designed to handle the demands of modern engine performance.

This timing gear is compatible with various Audi and Volkswagen vehicles, including popular models such as the Audi A3, A4, A5, Q3, Q5, Q7, TT, and Volkswagen Golf (V, VI, VII) with 1.8 or 2.0 engines. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure the correct fitment before ordering.

Symptoms of a failing timing gear crank include engine misfires, rattling or knocking noises from the timing area, poor acceleration, difficulty starting, loss of power, irregular idling, and in some cases, illuminated engine warning lights. Ignoring these signs can lead to severe engine damage.

Replacement of the timing gear crank is recommended if you notice any of the above symptoms, during major engine overhauls, or when the timing system is being serviced. It is essential to use the correct part to maintain proper engine timing and avoid costly repairs.
