Crankshaft Pulley Holding Spanner for VW Audi VAG TSI TFSI

A crankshaft pulley holding spanner for VW Audi VAG TSI TFSI engines, used when removing or installing the crankshaft central bolt. It holds the pulley in place so the bolt can be loosened or tightened without the pulley turning.

Used for engine servicing and repair work on selected Audi and VW models, this tool is suited to workshop use, garage maintenance and more involved home mechanical jobs. It is particularly relevant when working on timing-related jobs or front-end engine work where controlled access to the crankshaft pulley is needed. For anyone carrying out repair or servicing work on compatible TSI or TFSI engines, having the correct holding tool helps make the job more straightforward.

Supplied for Audi A3, A6 and Q5 models from 2004 onwards, it is also listed for VW chain-driven 1.8T and 2.0L 4V TSI and TFSI engines. The tool is made specifically for holding the crankshaft pulley during central bolt removal and refitting, rather than relying on improvised methods that can make the job awkward. Its application-specific fit helps with repeated maintenance work where secure pulley holding is needed. OEM reference T10355 is given for compatibility checking before purchase.
