Product Details

Cloyes timing chain guide 9-6060 is engineered to serve as the track that keeps the timing chain aligned between the crankshaft and camshaft. The nylon construction helps promote quiet operation and consistent chain control, while the bracketed design supports accurate placement in the timing system. Cloyes has focused on timing components since 1921, and this guide reflects that experience with materials and design intended to meet or exceed OEM performance expectations.

This part cross-references TYC 96060 and 06K109469P for the same application. It is a strong match for buyers searching for an upper timing chain guide for Audi A3, Audi A4, Volkswagen Passat, or Volkswagen Tiguan service work.

What This Part Helps Address

• Timing chain noise from a worn or damaged guide surface
• Chain misalignment in the upper timing system
• Excessive chain movement caused by guide wear
• Timing instability related to degraded guide material
• Service replacement needs during timing system repair on Audi and Volkswagen engines

Installation Notes and Tips
