A really good view and description of how this part of the engine is put together. thx!

To anyone seeing this, the cam hub bolts are TORX- PLUS T60. If you use a regular Torx T60, you will strip the hell out of the bolt. Ask me how I found out.

Hi there - got a bit of an issue that I’m wondering if maybe you’ve come across. I’ve got a rattling noise coming from somewhere near the decoupling pulley but it seems to be loudest when I put the stethoscope right on the front end of the timing chain cover near the coupler. I don’t think it’s the coupler itself as I replaced it a couple of years back. I’ve listened to the alternator with stethoscope and it seems smooth so it’s not that. I’ve also ruled out the ac pulley and the sound seem to be too far forward to be the tensioner for the aux belt…any ideas? Is there something inside other than the chain that could wear prematurely and cause rattling that you know of?

Very informative video. Thanks for the great work!!! I was wondering if you could offer some advice on a issue I'm having with my 07' s80 3.2? While driving my idler pulley seized causing the car to go into reduced engine performance mode and shutting off. I got the car towed home and replaced the idler pulley, tensioner pulley and serpentine belt. Upon starting the car the reduced engine performance is still illuminated along with the check engine light. I scanned for coded and get P1589 along with P2106. There car was driving great before the idler pulley seized so I'm confused as to why these codes would be thrown. Needles to say the car is hard to start and is sputtering when it does start with no throttle response. Can you point me in the direction of what I should check? I replaced the throttle body thinking that was the issues but same problem exits? Do these throttle body's need programming or is there a adaptation procedure that needs to be followed? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Drain oil and coolant, remove air box assembly and pipes, vacuum pump, compressor and mounting, p/s assembly. Do I need to remove coolant pipe below crank pulley? This will then give me access to outer timing cover. 2. Remove drive pulley and outer timing cover which will then expose the timing chain and proceed with cam shaft and inner cover removal. Before removing cam shaft with special tool, do I need to install the crank and cam locking tool on passenger side or this can be done during timing? Is crank locking tool required if the tyre is secured on the ground? Do I need to remove the intake manifold and the valve cover when installing the cam locking tool?

Do you put the engine at tdc before removing pulleys?

I don't set it to TDC. Since I do not turn the engine over once I remove the timing chain.

Hello, why it is mandatory to replace that seal at 8:49? And what is the special tool to do so? Thank you

@TheVolvoGuy

4 жыл бұрын

Because that seal have to be removed in order for the alignment tool to go there to align the cover. Once its removed it gets damaged and have to be replaced. The tool should be listed on the tools video.

Hey brother, need your help. My 2010 XC60 T6 won't start, I get 1 click from the engine and that's all. Any suggestion? Also, how can I crank the motor to make sure it's not a motor issue, just want to make sure motor is spinning free. Also, where can I locate the serial # on this motor. I have a feeling my mechanic is trying to pull a fast one on me. Please help, an expedited reply would be really appreciated. Thank you in advance.

The best way is to remove the starter motor from the bottom and using a pry bar try to spin the engine and see if it turns.
