Did it survive? P0016 1.4tsi Timing Chain CAXA Part 2

[@kamimohi]

Best video onTSI timing chain replacement ever. Thanks you so much for taking the time and effort to help out people like me to fix their cars. Only wished you didn't cut the part when you rotated the engine twice before tightening the bolts. Thanks heaps ❤️

[@JJamessssss]

Great video, got a 1.4 tsi cavd that is suffering from a cold misfire which stops when the engine comes up to temp. Just replaced the camshaft pulleys and timing chain as thought the vvt pulley on the inlet cam was the issue but still missing when cold. 150 psi compression on all 4, new plugs, tried coils

[@mjbadboy14]

I wish I got my timing chain fixed here. You guys do GOOD job.

[@00748040]

This is awesome explanation and examples with all tips and tricks included. Great job .Many thanks to share and support others who are really straggling to know and to get their car back in the road and safe to drive without a noisy engine. Thanks it was very useful.

About to do my timing chain kit on my 1.6 fsi vw golf got the timing tools and done Ford timing chains in past but they don’t come with dial.. quick question all I gotta do is put it to tdc on cylinder one with tdc dial then lock cams and crank change it all turn engine over twice to see if still in time and job done? Everyone telling me I got to find TRUE TDC with the tdc dial ?? 🤦🏼‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@peterhardy7680]

A can't believe how much detail you go into its great u make it sound easy I have mk5 golf 1.4 tsi blg with fault code p2004 can't get rid of it you ever come across this code

[@FourRingsAuto]

I try to be informative in the videos if i can. I make next to nothing out of youtube, so I'm glad to get comments like yours. P2004 is inlet flaps stuck i believe. I'd check vacuum to the actuator, and check the solenoid that the ecu uses to control the vacuum to the flaps. If you have access to vcds you should be able to do an output test of the solenoid, and put a vacuum pump on it and see if the the solenoid works. That's where I'd start. If the engine has been apart, from memory some of the earlier fsi and tsi 1.6 and 1.4, the flaps can get bent/jammed in the port if you don't open them slightly when installing. Hope some of that helps.

[@FourRingsAuto]

@@peterhardy7680 possible as it would be similar to carbon build up i guess. Also, make sure there isn't carbon build up whilst you're there. Compression test is always worthwhile on a 1.4tsi though. Cracked pistons are a common issue. I have another video discussing this, and would make sense with your oil burning too.

[@jamesbennett1691]

I have this engine in a SEAT toledo. Its 5 years old with 50,000mi. What would you say would be a sensible mileage to have someone take this apart and check the timing chain as a preventative item? I've bough a vacuum extractor to allow me to change the oil and hopefully avoid leaving a couple hundred ml in the sump as you mention happens when you drain from the plug. Great video.

[@FourRingsAuto]

There is a way to measure timing chain stretch with a degree wheel on the crank pulley. That is the way vw workshop manual explains how to do it. You can also remove just the sump and look directly at the timing chain tensioner from underneath and easily see how far out it is protruding, which would give an idea of how worn the chain is.

[@jamesbennett1691]

@@FourRingsAuto cheers mate appreciate it

[@velvetyawn]

Thanks for all your videos on this engine, they have been really helpful to me. At the end you say to crank the engine without starting to build up the oil pressure. What's the best way to do this on this car. Is pulling the ignition fuse enough? If so, which one? There are two: 'switch' and 'main'. Many thanks.

[@malcolmring4943]

Hi thanks for the vid, just a question. On re assembly, before timing case goes back on... Did you take the crank bolt out, how to get crank pulley back on, wirhout removing crank bolt, is it ok to remove crank bolt with tensioner released? Or am i missing something? Thanks

[@paupau2074]

hey thanks for the video! I have a problem with my 1.4 TSI CAXA because the timing of the outlet camshaft seems to shift after running for about 10 seconds. Everytime we start it runs fine for a couple seconds, then runs rough, and a couple seconds later the engine stops. When we check the timing we can see the outlet camshaft is off by just a couple degrees. We have put everything into timing about four times now and tried new bolts, loctite on the outlet bolt, higher torque on the outlet bolt but to no avail. It just doesn't grip the outletgear tightly enough. Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this or if we are forgetting something? Might get a new camshaft and gear but i dont think that will fix it. The outlet cam bolt can have a max of around 80 nm i think and when we loosen it it seems to be near 75 so giving the bolt an extra 90 degrees will most likely cause it to break. Any help or insight is appreciated!

[@zaidiboy4281]

Awesome video.! When the chain stretches or guides break do these motors bend valves?

[@FourRingsAuto]

Yes, they bend valves. Unless you get lucky and it only jumps a tooth or two.

Never seen one without the hole. Are you taking out the right bolt?

[@chmg4651]

Awesome video! So, in 6:49 , the crank in the bolt put the piston one in dead point center?

[@FourRingsAuto]

Yeah that bolt puts it at tdc, but it is still advised to check tdc with dti guage on the piston crown through the spark plug hole. Whenever I've done it with my kit though, tdc is the same spot as the bolt stops at against the crank.

Hi there, thanks for the great video. Unfortunately a family members 1.4tsi golf 5 jumped timing. I was going to tackle job myself as I’m fine on the tools but with time constraints sent to a local garage. The engine didn’t run after slip. Garage reported valves are bent. In your opinion what’s req for the job? can you just change new valves in , Lap them, new head gasket and be done or would you be changing anything else. Thanks

[@FourRingsAuto]

Valve guides can be cracked or ovalled when valves get bent. Depends on rpm that it occurred. Better off sending the head away to a machine shop for testing. A good machine shop can make there own valve guides as vw doesn't specify them as a spare part. Don't use a machine shop that puts inserts in the guides!

Is it a spring or hydrualik tentioner? I have a a3 from 08 with th 1.4 tfsi engine, and it rattles on startups, but it disapears in seconds. And the chain has been replaced from 30.000 km by a proffesional. Is it to worry about or is it just before it gets lubed og tensioned

[@terimaaa2361]

Hello I’ve got a seat Leon 1.4tsi CAXC my chain only makes noise on cold start but goes away when warmed up, do u think it’s caused damage in the engine now Bcus I heard the valves can bend etc also I don’t have any lights on dash

[@FourRingsAuto]

If the valves were bent it would run terribly, or not at all. Rattle from cold start is due to either as stretched chain and the tensioner has to refill with oil that had emptied out, the slack chain then rattles. Or it is the variable valve timing variator. Both require the timing chain cover removing to get a proper idea of what the issue is.

[@SalemAbuOmar]

hello friend easy repair when taking it out i think i know combined to the two work i watch most of yours video and i noticed all the repairs happened in around 158000 km range any idea or it could the maintenance range

[@FourRingsAuto]

That's probably a good observation to be honest. Most chains i seem to do would be between 120k and onwards, so 150 to 160k kms would sound right as to when they're required. Poor oil quality, from incorrect oils used or extended service intervals only reduce the kms travelled prior to this becoming an issue.

[@SalemAbuOmar]

@@FourRingsAuto there is a problem i noticed and face it from korean cars german and french i bought and drive in last 20 years oil life and change intervals when to change the oil and its life and using engine flush its less in french cars coz the dealer want to use the flush every 30000 km so imagine

[@eponymous7910]

Great stuff, you guys are very professional & meticulous with your repairs. I hope the owner of the featured vehicle has been shown this footage! As an aside is it worth removing/replacing the sump on these tsi cars after 9/10 years? I imagine there would be a lot of sludge in there regardless of oil change intervals? Anyways keep the vids coming, particularly the twincharged ones!

Yeah wouldn't hurt and most surely a good idea to pull the sump and clean it. Thanks for your comment and kind words.

Only needed if there is wear/sharp edges or teeth on the sprockets, or the inlet variator doesn't lock. It is not 100% necessary to replace them, unless there is damage.

Hi, I have a different issue I am battling with. New timing kit, but if I turn the engine backwards the tensioner piston moves right back into the body, there is then enough slack to let the chain jump! On a forum someone told me tensioner was supposed to be a ratchet type that cannot do this, but I can't find one. Here is the issue: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iovUmKtqnJajo6M As you can see, even with all new components, timing can slip. It's a destroyed engine waiting to happen. what has happened to VW that they can make something like this?
