Are there different 300 Tdi cylinder heads?
If so how do you identify them?

Use the Rave manuals.
If you look under the Td5 wiring diagrams you'll find 300 TDi wiring Diagrams as well.
This is what I use.
I have a limited edition 300 TDi build on a Td5 body and dash |

I recently changed the belt and all the seals but I see it is a little wet at the hole.
It's not dripping and I thought that I can change it with the next belt change.
This is only if it doesn't ge ... |

Yeah you're right. I'll have a look.
What's strange is that I used a torque meter as prescribed.
Well maybe I'll learn something. |
