I believe the flywheel is locked with a special tool which engages with the starter teeth on the flywheel.

Apparently from what I have seen online that is to lock the flywheel to allow the bottom timing belt pulley bolt to be undone? You have to insert the pin into the hole first? |

I guess you don't have the correct three part timing kit, if not both holes are 8mm diameter (an 8mm drill). but you need to be careful not to drop the driil into the flywheel casing. Also you need the flywheel locking tool. I suggest you get the kit,

I remember replacing my timing belt about four years ago and having problems lining up the timing rod with the hole in the flywheel, couldn't find the hole (ooo er mrs) until I used a mirror and a torch to find the exact position, If I was doing or rather when I do it again I will use a mobile phone.

You won't know until you set the timing with either or both holes in the correct position, check that first before proceeding with any strip down, are you feeling lucky |

Right so I have just reset the timing as per the correct pin holes on both the cam and flywheel. I had to move the cam about 1/4 of a turn to make it right and had to wiggle things around to avoid catching valves

I'd replace the damaged tensioner, and try it. I'd not replace the belt just for testing, only after I knew the engine was still going to function correctly. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The replacement for the SE.

I would purchase the full timing belt kit with water pump if the kit doesn't have it purchase a new crank bolt. Also look at replacing the Aux belt and it's gubbins too

I have purchased the full Gates kit complete with pump from a local reliable shop. Just waiting for the locking pin kit to come through in the post. Fingers crossed I have got very lucky (apart from the great big scratch down the side from some Ahole)

Quick question i have rotated the tensioner counter clockwise to tension and set the belt as per the arrow on the tensioner body. The couple of vids I have seen show it being rotated clockwise. Which is correct? |

Can't help with that question, but make sure the drain on the water pump is nipped up. Mine wasn't on my Gates kit, and I had a slow leak, as some other forum members have also experienced. Good luck |
