NOTE
Do not remove the primary timing chain lower
guide (1). The primary timing chain lower guide
is not serviced separately. If the primary timing
chain lower guide must be replaced, the oil
pump assembly (2) must be replaced.
Figure 6A1 – 207
12 Ensure the primary timing chain upper guide is selected and orientated correctly.

15 Ensure that the primary timing chain tensioner is
being installed.

16 Reset the primary timing chain tensioner.
NOTE
To reset the tensioner, use a suitably sized flat
blade screwdriver (1) or Tool No. J 45027 (4) to
wind the plunger in a clockwise direction, into
the tensioner shaft (2).

18 Compress the shoe assembly into the body (2) and
lock the primary timing chai n tensioner by inserting
Tool No. EN 46112 into the access hole in the side of
the body.
CAUTION
If Tool No. EN 46112 (1) is not inserted into
the tensioner body, the plunger will remain
in the locked position and no tension will be
placed on the timing chain.
19 Slowly release pressure on the primary timing chain tensioner. The primary timi ng chain tensioner should
remain compressed.
Figure 6A1 – 213
20 Install a new primary timing chain tensioner gasket (1) to the tensioner (2).
21 Install the primary timing chain tensioner bolts (3)
through tensioner and gasket.
22 Ensure the primary timi ng chain tensioner mounting
surface on the engine block does not have any burrs
or defects that would affe ct the sealing of the new
gasket.
Figure 6A1 – 214
23 Place the primary timing chain tensioner (2) into position and loosely install the bolts (1) to the engine
block.

28 Remove Tool No. EN 46105 from the left-hand and right-hand cylinder head camshafts.
Primary Timing Chain Components – MY06 Update
1 If previously removed, install the left-hand secondary timing chain components, refer to Left-hand
Secondary Timing Chain Components in this Section.
CAUTION
The right-hand camshaft intermediate
sprocket (2) is marked with the letters RB
and ‘FRONT’, and the left-hand sprocket (1)
is marked with the le tters LB and 'FRONT'
Ensure the correct sprocket is used and the
FRONT text is facing forwards when
installed.
2 Ensure the right-hand camshaft intermediate sprocket (2) is selected and orientated correctly.
