5.1. Engine timing check
5.1.1. Remove the engine top cover.
5.1.2. Detach the coolant return pipe from the expansion tank.
5.1.3. Remove the low pressure fuel feed pipes and coolant pipes to gain access to the toothed belt upper cover.
5.1.4. IMPORTANT: Cap the ends of all open pipes to prevent ingress of dirt and foreign objects.
Fig.1
5.1.5. Remove the toothed belt upper cover.
5.1.6. Raise the vehicle and remove the wheel and inner body shield.
Fig.2
5.1.7. Rotate the auxiliary belt tensioner in an anti-clockwise direction to release tension from the belt, retain the tensioner in position
using VS5170.05 tensioner locking pin.
5.1.8. Remove the auxiliary belt from the engine.

5.1.9. Using a 19mm bi-hex socket tted to the crankshaft central bolt as a counter hold, remove the 4 crankshaft pulley retaining bolts and
the crankshaft pulley from the engine.
5.1.10. Release the 4 retaining screws and remove the toothed belt lower cover.
Fig.4
5.1.11. To remove the lower cover on some early engines (MY:2012-2013) an 8mm hole must be drilled through the cover 10mm above the
lower retaining clip, just below the crankshaft sprocket. It is then necessary to use a small at screwdriver to break off the assembly
guide lug that is moulded on to the back of the lower cover. The lower cover has been modied on later engines, it is no longer
necessary to drill a hole to remove the cover as the locking tab can be accessed through the moulded aperture in the cover.
IMPORTANT: If drilling an access hole in the lower cover, care must be taken not to damage the toothed belt situated behind the
cover. If the toothed belt, the crankshaft sprocket or the crankshaft sealing ange are damaged they must be replaced. DO NOT ret a
damaged toothed belt.
Fig.5
5.1.12. Rotate the crankshaft in the normal direction of engine rotation until the guide peg of the crankshaft sprocket is positioned at
approximately 7 o’clock relative to the central bolt.
Fig.6
5.1.13. Check that the location fork of the camshaft hub is positioned at approximately 7 o’clock relative to the camshaft central bolt (just
before it reaches the location hole in the cylinder head). If it is approximately 180° out of position, remove VS5170.01, rotate
the crankshaft 1 full turn and check the positions again.
Fig.7
5.1.14. Locate VS5170.01 Crankshaft Locking Tool onto the crankshaft sprocket, ensuring that the sprocket guide peg is located in the recess
on the face of VS5170.01.

Note: It may not be possible to t the H.P. Pump locking pin if the hub fork is slightly out of alignment. Misalignment of 1-2mm at
the H.P. Pump hub is not detrimental to the operation of the engine and is acceptable.
5.1.19. If it is not possible to correctly install VS5170.01 Crankshaft Locking tool and VS5170.04 camshaft setting pin, the engine timing
will require adjustment.
5.2. Engine Timing - Adjustment

5.2.40. Check that the location fork of the camshaft hub is positioned at approximately 7 o’clock relative to the camshaft central bolt (just
before it reaches the location hole in the cylinder head).
WARNING: Only rotate the engine in the normal direction of rotation. If the location fork is positioned after the location hole in the
cylinder head, rotate the crankshaft a further 2 full turns and check the position again. DO NOT rotate the crankshaft in the opposite
direction to normal engine rotation.
5.2.41. Locate VS5170.01 Crankshaft Locking Tool onto the crankshaft sprocket, ensuring that the sprocket guide peg is located in the recess
on the face of VS5170.01, see g.7.

VS5170.02 H.P. Pump locking pin through the location hub fork of the H.P. pump sprocket and into the location hole of the engine.
Note: After rotation of the crankshaft it may not be possible to t the H.P. Pump locking pin as the hub fork can be slightly out of
alignment. Misalignment of 1mm at the H.P. Pump hub will prevent the locking pin from entering the location hole, but is not
detrimental to the operation of the engine and is a permissible error.
Fig.33
5.2.46. Ensure that the indicator arrow of the toothed belt tensioner
is aligned with the slot in the tensioner body.
Note: Belt tension may settle during initial rotation of the
crankshaft. The tension indicator may not return to exactly
the same position. Slight differences in tension indicator
position are normal and do not affect the operation of the
tensioner or the toothed belt.

camshaft. When the camshaft adjuster control valve is removed from the inlet camshaft there is no direct connection between the inlet
and exhaust camshaft.
Before removing the camshaft adjuster control valve, the inlet camshaft must be locked in position using VS5170.02 camshaft locking
pin tted through the aperture in the camshaft cover.
