The later models had an "automatic tensioner" for the timing belt but still the tool was recommended or the initial tensioning. To be honest, the 944 reflects too many trips to the VW parts counter. If the engine were a more "conventional" design (straight 6 or v6, even VR6), I think the car would have overcome many of its shortfalls.
