G60 Crankshaft And Timing Sprocket

Posted on: VW Corrado World

The sprocket and keyway on the crankshaft failed the other day. The crank and bolt threads are badly galled. I am going to replace the crank with a used one and put in new bottom end bearings and seals. The engine comes out this weekend.

That's a drag. Any valve damage? Can't remember if it's an interference design.

No valve damage. Non-interference engine. New crankshaft (Polished balanced, Knife-edged) is on its way. Doing a mini rebuild.
