not sure what the recommended method is. I pulled off that little plastice cover between the belhousing and a4 and stick a screwdriver in between teeth ont he flywheel. Worked well.

Yep, a BF screwdriver is the tool of choice for this job <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />

Dan,just wedge a 3/4 in. ratchet drive between one of the gaps in the pulley and spin it till it stops against something that will not break off,then start tightning the bolt back down.
