2002 1.4i Cam Belt Part Number

Post by 1.4i2002 »

Hi Guys,

I bought a new timing belt for my 1.4i and they gave a gates Vw121, is this the correct one or is it a vw121r?

I’ve tried to search but no luck.

Perhaps telling us which 2002 1.4i you are referring to might help a tad.

I had a look on https://volkswagen.7zap.com/en/rdw/

I appears that the engine was used quite extensively in Volkswagen's line up of models. The best match I could find was Volkswagen part number 056 109 119A

Aftermarket belts are manufactured by a host of companies, but these are the ones with the 121 number in the partnumber:

Timing Belt 121 A 18 HUTCHINSON
Timing Belt 121 A X18MM HUTCHINSON
Timing Belt 121LH180 VEYANCE
Timing Belt 121LH190 VEYANCE
Timing Belt 121R180 DAYCO
Timing Belt 121RX180 DAYCO
Timing Belt 121S180 DAYCO
Timing Belt 121SX180 DAYCO
Timing Belt 121TP180 ROULUNDS RUBBER

I suppose one would need to believe the salesman's guidance. Perhaps get a quote from different places to see if the info agrees.
