[Vwdiesel] Tensioner Pulley Removal Problem

[Erik Lane]

On my Jetta I had to jack up the engine, just like Bryan said. I don't think
that the stud was backed out - there just wasn't any clearance to get the
pulley all the way off. It didn't take too much jacking to get the clearance
to be enough. Pretty easy to do it then.
