TIMING CHAIN REPLACEMENT

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi 
Yes me and a mechanic friend managed to do it, fairly straightforward the main stumbling block is that you have to lower the sump which in turn requires the front exhaust to be lowered/removed to get gain access, otherwise very straight forward for somebody with a fair bit of diy knowledge.
Best of luck 
Neil
