looking at some 1.9TDI videos out there, how hard can it be..?
And its at this point that you stop and get a mechanic to do it
Or decides to do it
Edit; have you done it yourself?
No, i'm a quite competant DIYer but know my limits. A timing belt change is something I wouldn't attempt due to the risk if I got it wrong.
It seems quite easy; just a matter of access. The dealership does it in 1 hour.
Most obvious is four cylinders over our threeWorkshop manual instructions here for 2 different tensioners:

Pretty much the same other than that ,
Pin in my laser kit doesn’t fit the cam lock position (6mm dia) but cheap kit from amazon does (5.7mmdia)
Hope that is some help.

1 is a 1.4 the other is a 1.9 ? get a competent mechanic to do it otherwise you’ll be in a world of pain, that said you seem to already think it’s an easy job so have a go at it and see how easy it is ??Whats the difference between 1.4 and 1.9TDI with respect to this?
