MINI R56 Timing Chain Replacement DIY (2007-2010 MINI Cooper S and 2009-2012 JCW's) N14 & N12 Engine

Описание к видео MINI R56 Timing Chain Replacement DIY (2007-2010 MINI Cooper S and 2009-2012 JCW's) N14 & N12 Engine

►2007-2010 MINI Cooper S and 09-12 JCW models with the N14 engine, also known as the R56 MINI, are known for timing chain issues. This video covers how to replace the timing chain without putting your R56 into "Service Position."

The R56 is known to develop the "death rattle" dubbed by the MINI community. This is caused by insufficient tension applied by the timing chain tensioner to the timing chain, allowing the timing chain to contact the sides of the engine. This is most noticeable on cold start-up but can be heard any time while driving if it's severe enough.

It's important to catch this problem before it becomes a larger issue as it can ultimately cause your timing chain to skip teeth on the camshaft gears (VANOS) and skip timing. If this happens, it means the destruction of your engine.

Without knowing how much timing chain stretch your N14 or N12 has experienced, we recommend performing an entire timing chain service rather than replacing only the timing chain tensioner. This will prevent catastrophic failure.

This DIY requires numerous special tools, and at a minimum, eight hours of your time. If you're a novice, it's recommended to seek professional help to complete this service.
