Camshafts in situ, front cylinder head, B284 (new version)
|
Important
|
Store all removed valve parts in the valve stand 83 93 787.
|
|
1.
|
Remove the
Camshaft cover, front, B284
Warning
|
The cooling system is under pressure. Hot coolant and steam can escape.
|
- Open the cap slowly to release the pressure.
|
- Carelessness can cause eye and burn injuries
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.
|
Open the expansion tank cap and relieve any excess pressure.
|
4.
|
Undo the right-hand side of the spoiler shield.
|
5.
|
Place a suitable receptacle under the radiator. Connect a hose (A) to the radiator and drain the coolant. Close the cock and refit the spoiler shield.
|
9.
|
Remove the spark plugs.
|
10.
|
Remove the coolant port (A).
|
11.
|
Remove the camshaft solenoid valve (695F) (B).
|
12.
|
Remove the camshaft position sensor (555F) (C).
|
13.
|
Rotate the crankshaft so that the markings on the camshaft sprockets are visible and the indentations align with the cylinder head. Use
EN-48383-3 Adjustment tool
(A) as a gauge (the camshafts are now in their neutral position).
|
16.
|
Lower the car.
Important
|
Store all removed valve parts in the valve stand 83 93 787.
|
|
|
17.
|
Mark the chain and camshaft sprockets so they can be refitted in the same position (A).
|
18.
|
Loosen the torque on the bolts (B) holding the camshaft sprockets. Counterhold using an open spanner on the camshaft flats (do not remove the bolts).
|
19.
|
Fit
EN-48313 Timing chain holding tool
to the timing chain. Check that the tool grips the chain securely and that the lower groove (A) of the tool aligns with the top of the cylinder head (the timing cover is removed in the illustration to better depict tool fitting).
|
20.
|
Tighten EN-48313 Fixing tool manually so that the chain is unloaded. Counterhold using an open spanner so that the tool does not turn.
Important
|
It is vital that EN-48313 is properly fitted. If tension is not relieved from the chain when the camshaft sprocket is removed, the chain tensioner will trigger automatically. To then adjust the chain tensioner, the timing cover must be removed.
|
|
|
21.
|
Remove the camshaft sprocket bolts.
|
22.
|
Remove the sprockets from the camshafts.
|
23.
|
Remove the camshaft bearing caps by loosening the bolts in stages - 1/2 to 1 turn. It is important that the removal ends at the bearing cap where the tappets are loaded. Note the markings on the bearing caps when refitting to ensure that they are in the correct locations (A).
|
24.
|
Lift out the camshafts and note the rear marking on the camshafts. (B) The last letters in the marking: LI = intake camshaft, front cylinder bank. LE = exhaust camshaft, front cylinder bank.
|
1.
|
Position the camshafts and use EN-48383-3 Adjustment tool to check that the camshafts are mounted at the correct angle (B). The last letters in the marking: LI = intake camshaft, front cylinder bank. LE = exhaust camshaft, front cylinder bank.
|
2.
|
Fit the bearing caps as illustrated (markings on caps). Start where the cams point down and load the tappets. Note: Tighten the bolts in stages - 1/2 to 1 turn.
Tightening torque 10 Nm (7 lbf ft)

Check that the marks on the chain match the markings on the sprockets.
|
5.
|
Remove EN-48313 Fixing tool.
|
6.
|
Tighten the bolts of both camshaft sprockets (B), counterholding with an open spanner on the camshaft flats.
Tightening torque: 65 Nm (48 lbf ft)
|
7.
|
Fit the camshaft position sensor (555F) using a new gasket (C).
Tightening torque: 10 Nm (7 lbf ft)
|
