I just did a timing belt change on my 96 TSIAWD and I was verifying base timing and I noticed it's off. I checked ground timing connector in ECMLinkv3, and used a timing timing light. ECMLink was reading 5deg but I was seeing the mark just off "T," or what i presume is around 2deg.
I checked all the timing marks were lined up multiple times before I reassembled the engine. As far as I'm aware, it's not possible to set base timing on a 2G. If I was one tooth off on the crank, that should be around 15deg if i remember correctly.
What could be causing me to be around 2-3deg retarded?
