How to confirm whether this kit fits for your vehicle

Use the vehicle model matching tool to check if it is fit for your car.

Check product picture or product description, compare timing chain links and sprocket teeth with your old parts.

If you really can’t confirm, we will check for you accurately by your complete VIN Code.

What does a timing chain do?

A timing chain synchronizes the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft(s) ensuring proper timing and allows the engine's valves to open and close during each cylinder's firing. The chain is located inside of the engine and needs to be lubricated by the oil in the engine, making oil maintenance important as well. Every time you use the engine, the timing chain is in use

When does a timing chain need to be replaced?

The timing chain normally needs to be replaced between 80,000 and 120,000 miles unless there is a specific problem. Issues with the chain are common in higher mileage vehicles. If driving an older vehicle, or one with close to 100,000 miles, it is recommended to look for symptoms of the timing chain going bad or failing.

Signs a timing chain needs to be replaced include:

Later model VVT applications will generate engine codes and check engine lights prior to engine rattle
Older, pre-VVT applications will generate engine rattle

Should I also replace sprockets and tensioners?

Yes, MOCA recommends that all components of the timing system be replaced at the same time. Using a worn sprocket may result in the chain not meshing with the worn sprocket, which could result in poor engine performance.

Are these chains coming with timing marks?

Each chain has a Timing Chain mark for easier installation. When changing the timing chain or adjusting timing on a vehicle, understanding the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys is key to getting it right

How to change a timing chain

The timing chain is defective or broken. The vehicle is lifted and supported on jack stands. The coolant and oil is drained

Removing the Drive Belt Components. The water pump, belt and accessories are removed to gain access for the timing chain. Oil pan is lowered

The timing cover is removed. Lube the gear before installing the new chain. Place the new chain onto the gears while aligning with the marks. Tighten the chain according to your car manual's specifications

The timing cover and oil pan is reinstalled. The water pump, belt and accessories are re-installed as required. The engine oil and coolant are filled. The vehicle is removed from the jack stands

I got this for my 2007 mini cooper s and everything was the right size but the guide came broken. I am returning it and would suggest getting the more expensive one by evergreen parts.

It was the exact part, but the mechanic my original was still in good working order. The company handled the retun with no issue.

Good quality tools, though it would have been nice of the set came with new seals for the guide bolts, and new camshaft bolts. The tube of rtv silicone gasket maker was a nice touch for various reasons (valve cover and oil pan).

Bought this for my 09 Mini cooper s. Went in without any issue. Been driving the car for over a month and no issues.

This was cheaper than buying parts direct from dealer.I only installed the tensioner and top guide because the chain guide and chain on my car measured within the acceptable range.Within a few weeks, the top guide broke and fell down into crank case/oil pan (again).Cheap parts might help you confirm a diagnosis, but are not likely going to withstand the test of time.
