Hi folks!
Only one part is missing from my complete timing tool kit for EW12J4: part number is 0189C. This is for flywheel lock.
I would like to ask for dimensions of this part if anyone has that.
I was considering to buy it from store - but the full kit is €200+, and if I need only this one still €50 - so none of them are feasible.
Thank you for any help!

'wrong end' of an 8mm (I think) drill works fine....

Unfortunately kits around this does not include this 0189C part nr. tool.
2.2i (ew12j4 engine quite a rare, I am suffering every time when special tool is needed.
On the other I need only the dimensions & 20 min and it's going to be done with turning.
Doggy: yes, the other side of the crankshaft is 8 mm - Haynes manual mentioned that. Thanks!

Last time I did mine, I found there was a small gap between the lower bellhousing cover plate and the block casting, through which you could see a section of the flywheel as you turned the engine. (Car on ramps, lying under the sump, turning crank pulley bolt with a ratchet).
I could see the timing hole passing this opening a few degrees before it aligned the timing hole in the block, apply gentle pressure to your locking pin while slowly rotating the engine and it slips into place.
