2.5 diesel timing chain adjustment
« on: October 21, 2008, 06:23:01 PM »
I have a 325 tds with 145k and are wondering if any of you know if its possible to adjust the timing chain in line with any potential wear? I have owned one before, that broke a valve because of a worn chain at 170k.

I know that the cam sprocket bolts onto the end of the cam shaft, and doesn't have any rotational location so it could be loosened and moved round a bit - but is that actually possible?

Any thoughts would be highly appreciated!

Cheers, Jim
