About this product

The part is built to the following specification: Width 1 [mm]: 26 mm, Outer Diameter 1 [mm]: 75 mm, Outer Diameter 2 [mm]: 81 mm, Inner Diameter 1 [mm]: Carbon mm. Each dimension is checked against the OEM reference to ensure the component seats and functions correctly first time. Compatible with VW vehicles; use the vehicle selector above to confirm exact fitment for your make, model, and engine variant. Fitment data is sourced from TecDoc, the authoritative European parts catalogue. This part supersedes original equipment references: 0.066435, 0066435, 0.066485, 0066485 and 119 more. Matching these numbers confirms a like-for-like replacement with no loss of function. BMS is a recognised supplier of automotive engine timing components to independent workshops and dealer networks across Europe. All parts are sourced from authorised distribution channels and carry full manufacturer traceability — you receive exactly the same component supplied to professional garages and dealer workshops.
