Notes:
Mark the direction of rotation of the toothed belt
with chalk or felt pen before removing. A used
belt can break if it rotates in the wrong direction
when reinstalled.
The toothed belt tensioning element is oil-
damped and can therefore only be compressed
slowly by applying constant pressure.
- Using a hexagon key, turn toothed belt tensioning roller -1- clockwise 8
mm in direction of arrow until tensioning lever -2- compresses
tensioning element -3- sufficiently to enable a 2mm dia. spring pin to be
installed in the drilling and in the plunger.
- Insert spring pin and release toothed belt tensioning roller.
Use spring pin from 2024 A.
- Insert camshaft clamp 3391 in securing plates of two camshafts.
- Loosen both camshaft bolts and remove approx. 5 turns.
- Take out camshaft clamp 3391.
- Pull off both camshaft sprockets with special tool T40001.

Hydraulic lifters, checking
Notes:
Replace malfunctioning lifters completely (lifters
cannot be adjusted or repaired).
When new lifters have been installed the engine
must not be started for about 30 minutes
(otherwise valves will strike pistons).
Irregular valve noises when starting engine are
normal.
- Start engine and run until coolant temperature
reaches approx. 80 C.
- Increase engine speed to about 2500 RPM for
approx. 2 minutes: if necessary, perform road
test.
If the hydraulic lifters are still noisy, locate
malfunctioning lifters as follows:
- Remove cylinder head cover.
- Rotate crankshaft clockwise by turning securing
bolt for toothed belt sprocket until cams of lifters
to be checked are pointing upward.
