Checking the technical condition of timing parts

Sprockets, hydraulic tensioner, chain guide and tensioner arm

Check the camshaft and crankshaft drive sprocket teeth for excessive wear, chipping, and breakage. If necessary, replace the sprockets with new ones

Inspect the chain contact surface at the tensioner arm and guide for excessive wear and damage. If necessary, replace with new ones.

Check the stroke of the hydraulic tensioner plunger and the smoothness of its movement.

If any defects are found, replace the tensioner assembly.

Accessory drive belt and pulleys

Check the intermediate pulley for oil contamination, as well as for excessive wear and damage.

If defects are found, replace with a new one.

Check the drive belt for excessive wear. If necessary, replace with a new one.

Check the pulleys for vibration while rotating. If necessary, replace the pulley with a new one.
