Note
If due to complaints (for example noises) an elongated camshaft
timing chain is suspected, the chain length can be checked as
described as follows.
– Remove the plug -arrow-. The plugs must be replaced.
– Turn the vibration damper in direction of engine rotation until
the chain tensioner piston is maximally driven out in direction
of -arrow-.
– Count the visible piston threads.
Note
The visible threads are all of the threads that are located to the
right of the chain tensioner housing -arrow-.
♦ If six or fewer threads are visible: the camshaft timing chain
does not need to be replaced.
♦ If seven or more threads are visible: the camshaft timing chain
must be replaced. Refer to
⇒ 3.3 Camshaft Timing Chain, Removing and Installing,
page 118 .
