Crankshaft Locking Pin M14 x 1.5 for Audi A6 2.4 3.2 FSI Timing

A crankshaft locking pin for Audi FSI timing work, made to hold the crankshaft in the TDC position during engine service. It uses an M14 x 1.5 thread and is intended for timing belt replacement and related timing jobs where accurate crankshaft positioning matters.

Used when carrying out engine timing work on compatible Audi FSI vehicles, this type of locking tool helps keep the crank in the correct position while the belt is being removed or fitted. It is particularly relevant for servicing Audi A6 2005 models with 6 cylinder 2.4 and 3.2 FSI engines, making it useful for garage work, workshop servicing and more involved repair jobs where correct engine timing is important.

The threaded M14 x 1.5 fitment matches the stated application, and the tool is supplied as a single crankshaft locking pin for this specific timing task. Its job is straightforward but important during belt replacement, as holding the crankshaft at top dead centre helps reduce guesswork when setting up timing components. For regular engine service work, using the correct locking pin is a practical way to keep timing procedures more controlled and consistent.
