Engine Timing Belt Kit with Water Pump

Dayco WP296K1AMS is a water pump kit with seals for Volkswagen timing belt service. It combines the pump, belt, tensioner, and sealing components needed for a complete maintenance job on supported applications.

Key Features

• Engine timing belt kit with water pump for service replacement
• Metal impeller water pump construction
• Includes camshaft seal and crankshaft seal
• Includes camshaft belt tensioner
• Pre-assembly seal lubricant included in the kit

Detailed Description

This Dayco kit is built for Volkswagen engines that use a timing belt-driven water pump service layout. The WP296K1AMS package is listed for 1998-2014 Volkswagen Beetle, Golf, Golf City, Jetta, and Jetta City applications, with fitment varying by model year. It is a practical choice when replacing the timing belt system and water pump together during scheduled maintenance.

The kit includes a metal impeller water pump along with the timing belt, camshaft belt tensioner, camshaft seal, crankshaft seal, and pre-assembly seal lubricant. That combination supports a more complete service on Volkswagen Jetta, Volkswagen Golf, and Volkswagen Beetle applications where the water pump and belt components are serviced together. Part number WP296K1AMS is also cross-referenced to Continental-ContiTech PP296LK1-MI for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Replacing a worn timing belt service assembly
• Addressing coolant leakage from the water pump area
• Restoring proper belt tension control
• Renewing aging camshaft and crankshaft seals
• Servicing a noisy or inefficient cooling system pump

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine code and exact model-year fitment before installation, since coverage varies across Volkswagen Jetta, Golf, Golf City, Jetta City, and Beetle applications. Follow factory timing procedures and replace related wear items during the same service interval. Confirm seal surfaces are clean and properly lubricated before assembly.

Quality Assurance

Dayco supplies timing and cooling system components for service replacement applications. Part number WP296K1AMS is engineered as a complete maintenance kit for supported Volkswagen platforms.
