    Be careful maybe the customer didn’t want to pay the other garages to take the valve cover off. It would not be hard to diagnose timing been out . Some customers are not to be trusted, good luck though

    chain guides break on these and timing jumps. also pistons crack from poor remapping.

    As soon as I read the title I knew it had a jumped timing chain, most likely also has bent inlet valves and cracked valve guides.

    How would you possibly know from the title that the timing had jumped? I’m intrigued, we could have titled this feature numerous names 😅

    Not so, it’s about stringently isolating and tracking the actual fault from the ground up, then repairing it
