This video covers changing the timing belt on a 2012 Golf R USA spec. with the CRZA EA113 engine.

This video is just a helpful guide to what I did. Do not take this as gospel. I just documented the process because I could not find any full videos for myself going into the job. Do this work at your own risk.
