Complete Timing Chain Replacement on 2013 L405 Range Rover Supercharged

[@shwndh]

Doing this is one huge feat. But recording the whole thing and editing it is another beast all in itself. You're a legend!

[@petercunningham5820]

Hahahahah thanks. It made the job 3x as long as it needed to be. Worth it though to help others.

[@ryan95240]

Outstanding step-by-step instructions even included torque specs. Thank you for this. I’m going to be doing this job soon on my Range Rover sport

[@petercunningham5820]

Yep, it's complete. I even when back in and made edits to make sure the instructions are clear.

[@ianfarley4773]

Wow you have absolutely nailed it!! And saved thousands of diy’ers money

[@anthonylyons4617]

This is true youtube this blokes a legend

[@petercunningham5820]

Thanks brother. lol Nearly made me blush.

[@Freedom37854]

To anyone watching this ….replace the plastic rear coolant pipes for new aluminum ones , the front coolant pipes also, the supercharger shaft spring and the water pump or you will be doing all this work again soon. There are kits like from Euro Amp that are great. DO SOME RESEARCH on coolant line failure. It is on all Land Rover engines. Great video

[@2blkSSs]

You sir are a real one! I have had this in the back of my mind trying to do this for a while. Mine doesn’t need it yet, but when it does I’m using this video.

[@petercunningham5820]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@Elysium.Dreams]

Great video! I'm going to be using this when I tackle the job on my Jaguar XJL! Thanks!

[@e.e9331]

What a fantastic video! Thank you!

[@petercunningham5820]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@alanottley]

Excellent - thank you!

[@petercunningham5820]

You’re welcome. It was my first time ever doing a timing chain on anything. Came out great and I’ve put 50k miles on since with no issues 👍🏻 I guess you can say “Ops Check Good. “

[@jimbowats]

Great job!

[@seans9125]

Great video, will be using this when our 13' L405 starts showing signs of timing wear. (Currently at 89k miles). Currently we're focused on a clunk in the drivetrain... most likely transfer case related as we used it to tow frequently. Not too sure how much more $ we're willing to dump into it though...

[@petercunningham5820]

Mine was doing the same thing, grinding and making weird noises in the transfer case. Believe it or not changing the oil in the transfer case completely remedy this. I was completely shocked, but I read about other users doing it and having the same results. Give it a shot.

[@seans9125]

@@petercunningham5820 Yeah I saw someone on the LR2 forums who did the same thing! Will definitely be doing this.

[@calvinalford4121]

Thank you so much for this video step by step. I can do this with my level of working on car and truck. I really trust my skills. I hope my wife does on this project

[@petercunningham5820]

@@calvinalford4121 She will by the time you are done! And you will save a tone of money. I've put 30k miles on my Rover since I did the TIming Chain. No issues. Runs great.

[@wesleywu4000]

Just got to the timing components and didn’t lock the cams properly, heard a ding where I assume the exhaust valves on one cylinder slammed back. Any chance of severe damage u think? Thanks a bunch, super clear instructions already.

[@petercunningham5820]

If the motor was locked out at TDC I don’t think any damage happened. Just the spring tension making the valve close. Probably free’d up a little carbon that may have been hanging on to that valve I’d venture to say.

[@Pianoboi-dc9ny]

@@petercunningham5820 thanks so much, thankfully it was locked at tdc! the sound gave a bit of a scare. just finished up putting in the timing components and just realized they also included the lower chain which i checked with the tool, is still in time. do you recommend to change that too since i already put most of it back together? i also checked in the cylinder and noticed some vertical scoring, would you say thats normal at 90k miles? Thanks!

[@Rolls-RollsPE]

👍🏻Thank you

[@mascho22]

maybe easier to remove the windshield cowling (i know a pain) to get better access to the back of the SC?

[@petercunningham5820]

Probably. It's water over the damn and in the rear view now. 👍🏻
