THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU,. Alan I have just repaired the head gasket on my wife's brother's Peugeot 508 2.0 with same engine. Your various videos on timing belts, fuel pump timing, Egr abominations and chain replacement gave me all the info I needed. It took me quite a while , maybe nearly 30 hours over two weeks, but it seems successful. It started on second turn of the key and only real problem at the end was I forgot to reconnect the cam sensor so it was a sluggish starter. A word to other users, I broke the head off 6 of the head bolts due to the torx part shearing. Luckily a friend was able to weld old sockets and we got them out for the price of a few pints. Thank you once again Alan for your wonderful videos. You've a friend in Ireland now! Thanks, Richard, Dublin.

[@commodore665]

You got a piece of modern art there mate

[@gbkwiatt]

Just 2 cents from me, video helped a lot, but it's worth mentioning correct torque values for a cover, it's 5nm pretension and 10Nm final tension, and it's very important to not overdo it. Also .. something I should be aware of, when taking injectors out, you have to replace cooper washers, one of mine is not sealing correctly and smoke is coming out so I have to replace it. Other than that, great stuff.

[@SvennsCarchannel]

The Rover 75 is fitted with a Jatco JF506E transmission witch in fact is the same that is used in the mk3 Mondeo. Very rare with mechanical issues but quite prone to electrical issues. But I seriously doubt the gearbox is at fault here! Thank you so much for spectacularly entertaining videos😁

lol, you have to be a one armed bandit these days ...its not a cheap job, the chain kit and all the gaskets needed as well as a cam belt kit and water pump will cost from ford the best part of £500...and labour will depend who does the job

[@ianwoollard9008]

Another fantastic tutorial video Alan.👍👌 These vehicles 'MUST' be very well maintained otherwise they wouldn't still be running sweet with over a 1/4 of a million miles on some of them so give yourself a pat on the back. Boss-man (Steve) was right to buy a fleet of Fords by the looks of it because if he went 'German' & bought a fleet of BMW's some of them have cam chains on the opposite end of the engine. (Behind the Flywheel). So it's Engine out, Gearbox & Clutch & Flywheel off to access the timing cover. They are a nightmare !

[@tylerwiggins8368]

What does it mean if the camshaft position sensor b advanced but the cambelt timing is spot on.

[@alan4x]

i had a case where the chain and cam belt timing were spot on but a code kept coming up for over advanced timing which turned out to be a faulty engine ecu, purchased a good used ecu off eBay and had it programmed to the car which cured the problem

[@tilemahos26]

Hi Alan, I hope you understand my question. I have noticed on a Ford mk5 in the winter months when the cabin heater is on, after a while, I lose 2dcl of coolant from the system, which is visible in the antifreeze container. What could be causing this? I note that there was no mixing of antifreeze and oil in the container (the antifreeze is "clean") and I did not notice any impurities in the oil.

[@ianro8065]

Always best to squash the hydraulic lifters down when the cams are removed as when they are realeased they jack up and will keep a valve open

[@alan4x]

never had these ones cause a problem unlike a fiesta zetec lol

[@PescareanuDK]

so the mark on the high pressure pump and the hole from cmashaft pulley need to be both at 6 a clock right? to mounted right

Can you remove the tensioner in situ without taking out the chain/camshafts?

[@patkelly7999]

Mighty job Alan💯👌👍🙂

[@ViruZHUN]

Hello Alan! Regarding the factory standard oil leak by the HPFP. I have came up with an idea which i actually used. I picked the cog-wheelunit in its 2 peices and only bolted up half of it to the engine at the time, why? because if you do that you can use alot of sealent paste on the actual gasket itself and not be afraid of it blocking the oil way because if only half of it is bolted up you can easily remove the excess paste from the hole. then after i have done that I bolted up the other half of the cog unit, installing the cogwheel like this when half of the unit is bolted up can be tricky but a bit of wiggling it around it will slot into the camshaft cog drive. I think this can be a good idea to solve the issue

[@alan4x]

its not what i would do but if it works for you then good

[@ViruZHUN]

@@alan4x it was just an idea for potential improvement on your solution, I saw it in one of your videos few months back

[@prawny12009]

A car I've just had in with broken rockers has a lot of sealant around the cog box to the head and a bead of sealant on the body of it. Car won't start showing low fuel pressure code which is making me suspicious of the high pressure pump and perhaps it's oil feed. If the pump fails do they often cause timing issues?

[@Genove82]

Allan,what is the cause of the tapping noise on cold start engine until is warming and disappear? 2.0 TDCI.A lot of mondeo's have that sound on cold start and nobody know if is that normal.

[@alan4x]

without hearing it i cant say but diesels usually are not that nice when stone cold, if it was something serious the noise would be there when hot as well

[@doaked]

I've a head to replace on one of these, what sealant are you using between the head and cam carrier? The information in your vids is invaluable

[@alan4x]

its just instant gasket maker sealant sold at any autopart centre..ford dealers will also sell the correct sealant

​@@alan4x 2008 S-Max as it happens. Absolute pig of a job. Whoever designed this layout, the positioning and around the engine layout needs a slap. Better hoofing the engine - far quicker. Good insightful vids btw - 👍👍

[@mlze20]

Just the video I've been waiting for, thanks Alan, i did the paper check and yeah it spits out oil but not noisy like your video, so hopefully it won't cause any problems just yet, unlike my water pump that failed at 50k 3days after I brought the car😂 luckily it was fixed under warranty and they also replaced the cambelt, I had this all done in Huntingdon not that far from your garage?

[@alan4x]

you can also put a pick in the oil filler hole and wiggle the chain. with the engine off lol..if it is loose then it will need doing soon, you will know as the engine sounds pretty rough with a worn chain, good luck

[@mlze20]

Hi Alan, I was wondering if you have ever had a tapping noise on any of your Mk5 when you do a cold start? That last for about 2minutes, once the engine warms it soon stops tapping and sounds normal I've ruled out the chain as this seems nice and tight, it's driving me crazy 🤣 and the garage I brought it from tells me it's normal, all I can think is it could be a sticky hydraulic lifter, so that's got me wondering if using a oil Additive would help, everyone who has heard me start my car in the morning or after a day at work notice it straight away 😂 it's a bit of a ongoing joke. Would muchly appreciate any insight if possible. Thanks Alan

Good evening everyone!! I have a 2016 reg ford mondeo 1.5 tdci with the engine not producing enough power! The car is not in (LIMP MODE) but it’s pretty much like if it was! I cant get up a steep hill in second gear! High speed max around 80-85mph thats with alot of effort! As soon as it hits a hill starts coming down to sometimes 50mph on a motorway! When I bought the car 1 year ago it was still under power wich I assumed its due to being just 1.5 engine but nowhere near as bad as it is now!! If i put high quality fuel from BP for example the car will get just a little better and it’s noticeable! No smoke no warning lights nothing!

[@alan4x]

hi, yes it is the same engine, best to have the oil changes done every 8-10k miles. it is the tensioner that wears out and causes the noisy chain but i would say replace the chain and tensioner at around 200k miles or on the second cambelt change

[@alexmessina3383]

Ok. So why would that be considered indicative of a badly worn chain, as opposed to say excessive blow by??

[@christophersherratt7299]

Alan when you take out the injectors do you keep them in the order you took them out ie 1/1 2/2 and so on i once got told if you ever get second hand pump of old car you should All ways take the old injectors and rail or they don't work was thinking about what you said about putting them down on cold surface and yes mate ill subscribe and like for you👍😃🤪

[@alan4x]

hi christopher, yes when you remove the injectors on these engines you should keep them in order as they are individually coded to each cylinder. if you did mix them up the engine will still run but you could get adverse effects like diesel knock.... you don't need original injectors if you replace the fuel pump

[@molajat6133]

Is some noise from these chains acceptable? I can hear mine (it's like a quiet scraping sound) but it's not very loud.

How can I fix this problem? And what is the cause?

[@FatHead1979]

The classic starting point on DPF equipped diesels for this issue is checking whether the DPF is blocked/heavily restricted because a failed regeneration cycle can cause the unburnt fuel to end up in the oil sump. You mention the car is a taxi, does it just do short (stop start) urban runs or does it get a regular decent run out e.g. airport runs etc?

[@goodman8498]

Is the cog box that the pump bolts on a reduction gear or something and what is the chance of something failing and causing the timing to jump? Just put one back together that had snapped exhaust rockers, belt timing was ok so i can only assume chain jumped. The cog box has sealant on its joint and to the head so I'm assuming they had been off previously for some reason, are there oil passages to watch out for on them? What does the pump gear align with in the cog bog and os it set with the crank and cam timing locked
