Tid water pump quick fix?
Hi everyone. New to the forum ( been a lurker for quite some time) you guys have been of great help before
I have a quick question. Can you change the water pump on a 1.9tid 16v without removing more than the cover and taking tension off the timing belt?
I have to do a road side water pump change it seems..

It looks like it is that easy on the diesel engine. The WIS shows removing the timing belt but taking the tension off should work just as good.
