How I Replaced the Timing Chain on my 200,000km Honda Engine

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

UPDATE DO NOT BUY THE CHEAP KIT, ONLY BUY THE GENUINE PARTS BELOW
*UPDATE VIDEO: • Why You Don't Cheap On...
After nearly 200,000 km’s, the timing chain on my Honda Accord needed to be replaced. The chain has stretched to the point where the automatic tensioner can no longer handle the slack. When the tensioner can no longer keep the proper tension on the chain, you might get the same check engine light that I did, which was P0341; Camshaft Position Sensor A. Before throwing parts at the car, I first inspected the wiring connecting the sensor to the PCM and everything seemed fine. At that point, it was 1 of 2 things, faulty camshaft sensors, or stretched chain. I was really hoping it was just a matter of installing new sensors and the car would have been golden, but of course, it was the more expensive route. So after picking up new sensors, I had to pull trigger and purchase a timing chain kit for the Accord. Since my Honda has a K24, I knew there was a large recall regarding the VTC actuators, where they would cause a horrible noise on cold starts. Mine occasionally made some noise, but it wasn’t enough to justify replacing it att the time. The main cause of the actuators to go bad is overdue oil changes, and high mileage. Since I was going to be in there doing this process regarding the timing chain, I figured it would make logical sense to remove and replace the VTC actuator with a new one. All of the parts and tools I’ve used to get this done can be found below. I’ve also included torque specs for everything so I hope this guide helps you out :)

    Yellow Sac spiders, and they can cause lots of problems with your car. They are attracted to the smell of gasoline and often will weave webs and egg sacs in the evaporative canister vent lines. Mazda even had to issue a recall due to the spiders plugging up the components.

    I just ran across this video today. Five years later, you’re still helping him. I’ve been asking the dealership over and over again what that sound was. And none of them could diagnose it. And just this week it started sounding like it was slightly out of time. And I’m getting a high number of misfires on two of the cylinders. It only throws a code in the morning when it’s cold but I’ve had that sound for over 60,000 miles.

    ATTENTION: Very nice job first of all and love the added torque specifications because this was very difficult information to find to be consistent. In both of the following instances, relating to the Crankshaft pulley bolt torque, the threads are cleaned and threads/bolt platform lubed with oil. Reusing the old Bolt: torque to 36 ft/lb , then rotate additional 90 P'B deg.; Using a new bolt: torque to 130ft/lbs then loosen and torque to 36 ft/lbs then 90 P'B deg. Also, note I could NOT get the bolt loosened as many also experienced, the ticket was using the special 19mm crankshaft pulley/ harmonic balancer impact socket Lisle PN 77080. Boom, DONE! Thanks again, you did great and I hope anyone finds this helpful.

    Youngest kid and I did a timing change on his K20. Installed Honda OEM parts and front main seal, timing chain cover "O" ring type seal also since we were in there. Had an issue getting the new timing chain tensioner to fully release. Had to manually manipulate the arm on the tensioner to get it to fully release. Everything popped into place. Noticed slack between the cams when rotating the engine by crank pully nut. Good thing we checked everything multiple times. The job itself is straight forward. Pain in the ass to get stuff out of the way. Car was a crank, no start with no error codes. I would expect a crank/cam sensor code. Verified spark with plugs removed, injectors electrically firing with noid lights. Sprayed starting fluid. Engine would not hit. Pulled valve cover and checked timing marks on the cam. Off by 2 teeth. Scopecammed pistons and valves, no damage.

Your camera work was crystal clear, closeup shots on the location of timing chain marks is the best. Narration was clear and relevant to the job, ( no unnecessary banter ). Additional info like wrench size to turn or secure the camshaft or utilizing a helper to reinstall the timing chain cover is helpful. Great job and appreciate you filming and sharing this on You Tube.

    Hey Milan, I've been watching your 2009 Accord Coupe Videos. By the way GREAT JOB. I also have an 09 Accord Coupe purchased new in 2009 it's an EX-L 4cyl, Polished Metal Metallic , black leather interior. The same base car as yours except mine is the 5 Speed Automatic. I haven't done the major mods that you've done but I have done some, rear spoiler, 18" Honda 7 spoke wheels, added all the trunk and hood liners that were stock on the 6cyl. I also scored the Vtec nameplate for the trunk lid on the opposite side from the Accord label. Mine also did not come with fog lights and the installation of them is a bit much for me at over 70 years of age. Honda wants WAY to much to-install them. QUESTION, in a few vids you state that you consistently red-line the engine. Do you think that has contributed to your timing chain & vtec problems? I ask because a friend of mine in California has a 2008 same engine with over 250,000 miles (over 402,000K) and she says she'll get in her Accord and drive cross country, no worries. The only maintenance shes done is Honda USA (NOT DEALER) recommended services and her car is a 5 speed automatic so it stays well below red-line. I do enjoy your videos. This is my third Honda, I've owned a 2001, 2003 and now the 2009. I don't drive as much as I used to so I only have 65,000 miles (105000K). Thanks for reading, regards Tom. P.S. I have the K&L cold air intake system, but I've been waiting for my extended warranty to expire. One day I'll do a Video.

    I will soon will be going thru the same thing, and the mechanic said, once we are replacing the timing chain, you might as well replace the vtc actuator and the water pump, what do you think about that, also I will getting the parts, question the oem vtc actuator is going for almost 200, and I see an aftermarket goin for less than 100, question will you make the spent on the oem or the aftermarket? I thank you before hand and hope to hear from you

    I got a Denso VTC sprocket but everything else is OEM straight from a dealer's parts counter. FixItAngel uses the Denso on his fix and AFAIK Denso is also an OEM provider for Honda...so it's not like I'm just buying some cheap knockoff. However the sprocket itself is made in China, sooo...

  • @prevost8686

    There’s nothing wrong with the VTC sprockets or chains. Here’s the problem . All North America market K- motors are spec’d for either 0W20 or 5W20 GL-5 oil and ridiculously long oil change intervals. GL-5 oils have had the zinc levels dropped drastically to protect the catalytic converters. The very same engines that are shipped to European assembly plants are spec’d for either 0W40 or 5W40 European spec oils. Not only do they have a higher viscosity but they also have higher levels of zinc and detergents. The ONLY reason N.A. Markets engines are running 20wt oils is because of CAFE fuel economy requirements the manufacturers have to meet. I’ve been a Honda tech for 25 yrs. I purchased my 2005 Accord new and since its had 2000 miles on it I have ran 0W40 European car synthetic in it at 7500 mile intervals. Never had a chain, tensioner, sprockets. Clean as a pin inside and totally quiet. Uses no oil between changes. My oil supplier for my shop has an 03 he uses as his company car. That thing has over 250,000 on it and never had the valve cover off. He’s run 5W40 CJ-4 diesel oil in his the whole time . Though higher zinc levels may shorten catalytic converter life I’d much rather spend 30 minutes and $140 for a bolt on converter than tearing the front cover off of my engine and dealing with worn chains, and worn VTC sprockets. It’s a no-brainer for me.

  • @094340

    Will a stretched timing chain always throw a code (CEL), or should this be done as preventative maintenance? I have a 2009 Accord that has 146K miles on it, and it has that VTC actuator rattle on a cold start. It lasts for less than 1 second, but it's always there. There is conflicting information about all of this crap. Some Honda mechanics say don't worry about it but be sure to keep oil levels up. While others say that the rattle noise will lead to the timing chain jumping teeth before too long. So needless to say, I am confused. However, if I know that a CEL will be triggered 'before' the situation becomes critical, then I'll feel a bit more at ease.
