#TimingChainElongation #StretchedTimingChain #TimingChainMeasure #ChainTensioner #BMWF20 #BMWN13
Are you buying a BMW car with over 160000 km or 100000 miles?
As in the previous episodes, I do a 160 tkm service for my BMW F20 car
Diagnosis & maintenance BMW F20 116 2013 engine N13 (N13B16)
00:00 Intro
- Check the elongation of the timing chain with a special tool
- Without having to open the motor!
- There are no extra noises from the engine or timing chain
- The only thing I’ve noticed: At idle, the engine revs may occasionally fluctuate after starting
00:33 Remove intake silencer housing
01:19 Remove acoustic cover
- Pull of vacuum lines from vacuum tank and remove acoustic cover
01:53 Remove chain tensioner
- Keep the cleaning cloth under the escaping oil
- The chain tensioner is broken!!
- Old chain tensioner version is "V 7597895 80-02 IWIS"
- The tensioner spring appears to be twisted
04:00 Measure timing chain elongation
- Special tool 2353281 (117200) for measuring timing chain elongation
- The price of the special tool was 29,90€ from www.xxl-automotive.de
- Engine N13: Screw in special tool WITHOUT shim
- Timing chain is OK if protrusion is detected on special tool (measuring pin)
- Torque for chain tensioner for N13 is 80 Nm
- If a short length or flush distance is detected on special tool (measuring pin), the timing chain and chain tensioner must be renewed
- Crank engine at constant speed in direction of rotation 4 times
- Do not turn the engine against the direction of travel
- Determine minimum dimension on special tool with the aid of a second person
- Keep the measuring pin in the tensioner under constant observation
- Determine minimum dimension on special tool
- Flush distance is detected on special tool (measuring pin)!
- The timing chain and chain tensioner must be renewed!
06:59 Install new chain tensioner
- with latest version 7607551
- Chain tensioner part 11317607551
- The special tool is slightly shorter than the actual chain tensioner
- Looks like there are cracks in the water pump drive wheel!
- Checking the condition of the filtered air pipe
- Cracks in the air tube around the neck!
07:59 Cracked filtered air pipe
- The filtered air pipe and water pump drive wheel must also be replaced!
- Condition of the (Hot-film) air mass meter
- I think I'll clean it later with an air mass cleaner

My purpose is to encourage people to do things themselves!
Plus, this is a nice hobby for myself and at the same time I have the opportunity to save a lot of money by doing all the maintenance myself!
I’m not a professional with cars or motorcycles, I just want to learn how to do things myself.
If you do this service yourself, always check the correct instructions in the official service manuals. This is just my way of doing it!

Kiitos videosta! Tilaan tuon työkalun ja mittaan N47D20C koneen tilanteen. Kilsoja on 344tkm ja merkintöjä ketjun vaihdosta ei ole, joten vähän jännittää :D

[@EE-nu2gh]

Thanks for the video, really helpful.

[@JessicaDiary]

I have enjoy watching this video. Keep up with good job.👍 Don't give up and work hard until the channel moves forward and succeeds.😘 May you be blessed 🙏🙏

[@mikeukabam1075]

Hi Jani, appreciate your videos. Can i lease ur bmw f20 tensioner chain checking tool by some arrangement? A bit of a waste for diy when it will be used probably only once. In Switzerland.

[@pericodelospalotillosverdes]

with some subtitles in Spanish and a translation option for the questions and answers would be the best of the channel.

[@True_koala]

Hi i have a 116i and dont have chain problems yet but i am considering replacing my tensioner but is this even possible whitout retiming it?

[@jackg7492]

Hi Jani. I just wanted to say thanks very much for putting together your series on N13 maintenance. You're a talented, thorough mechanic and videos are brilliantly put together. I've been thinking of selling my 2015 116i, but actually I will be able to keep it and do a lot of the work myself because of you. Thanks so much.

[@MichaelVanBladel]

Hey man! Super informative video series, i'll be using them to change my timing chain when the time comes :) quick question, where did you get the special measuring tool? I can't find it anywhere online :(

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Thanks! You can google it like: "tool 2353281" Or you can find it from here: www.xxl-automotive.de/spezialwerkzeug/motorsteuerung/bmw-mini/6950/verschleissanzeiger-fuer-nockenwellenantriebskette-fuer-mini-bmw-n12-n16-n18-n47-n57

[@V10PDTDI]

hi the engine in this car look very similar to a MINI ENGINE I have never seen this engine in a BMW before this is because I live in Canada and we don't get this version here.

[@skatiaris21]

Thanx for the wonderful videos…I have n13 with 110.000km and I change oil every 7.000km with amsoil 5w40euro…Should i just replace tensioner or not? engine is very clean inside I had to chnage the oil pressure sensor in the oil sump and mechanic told me everything was super clean…Do I need to lubricate the tensioner before installing? Thx !

[@True_koala]

I have the same. Question by only changing the tensioner? Did u find an answer to it?

[@iga941]

Great video. My N13 was making a worrying noise and I followed your advise, bought the special tool and a new tensioner. I did the test. In my case the protrusion starts flush and turning the engine, moves a little bit to the inside and like 1mm to the outside, which is good news, isn't it? Don't know how much should it come out. My tensioner was in good condition, or at least it didn't fall apart when removing it. Put a new one in and engine runs as it was running, making the same noise. I will sleep better today, even though not entirely sure as the noise hasn't improved...

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Thanks! You determine the minimum dimension with this special tool. If the flush distance is detected on a special tool (measuring pin), you should already consider changing the timing chain I also tested that special tool after replacing the timing chain, and now in the latest video (valve stem seals replacement); so you can get a little indication of how the tool behaves.

[@iga941]

@@JaniVoutilainen I had a look at the product description in the website and yes, it has to come out permanently, not intermittently. I have to replace the chain.

[@flexo7267]

Hey, What was the reason for changing the tensioner? Ratteling noise at Engine Start? Second question, are you shure, that it is the Right Tool for your Engine? If so the messuring pin Looks permanently in so the chain should br replaced. Die the same with my Engine n43. So Pin has to be permanently outside zehn Chain is ok.

[@JaniVoutilainen]

I wanted to check the condition of the chain so that there would be no problems in the future like with the N43 engine. Surprisingly, that broken chain tensioner was found. I personally think about the suitability of that special tool because it is a little shorter than the actual chain tensioner, but according to the data it is also intended for the N13 engine. Anyway, I'm going to change the timing chain anyway. I just wanted to show the elongation before the renovation 👍

[@rogervip888]

Would you please advise me what the socket size is to unscrew the chain tensioner?

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Now I don’t remember exactly, maybe 27mm. But it is worth'll get socket set which can be found in all sizes 👍

[@leorivera5904]

Hola, te felicito por tus videos, me son de gran ayuda. ¿Estás seguro que el par de apriete del tensor son 80Nm ?, te lo pregunto porque en otros videos pone que son 65Nm

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Thanks! 👍 The tensioner torque is 80Nm for engine N13 and 65Nm for engine N43. This has been revised from ISTA-D

[@leorivera5904]

@@JaniVoutilainen muchas gracias

[@mifo1133]

did you sold your E91 with N43 engine? N43 series is over? 😞

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Don't worry, I haven't sold! The E91 with N43 series will continue 😊. It is not worth going to sell it after a relatively large amount of effort has been put into it. 😉 For example, the Nox system still needs attention ... First, other vehicles must be serviced 👍

[@bigdeal87]

Did you had any chain rattle? Thx

[@JaniVoutilainen]

There hasn’t been any extra rattle for at least half a year. At least I haven't noticed. About a year ago, gently accelerating at 2000-3000 rpm, the engine sounded a momentary and very random rattle but I never localized where it came from. That sound has not been heard for a long time. Currently, there are only occasional misfires, usually at idle, such as fluctuations in idle cycles that may be related to a broken intake pipe or a dirty MAF sensor ...

[@bigdeal87]

@@JaniVoutilainen thx are those rattling sounds now gone around 2000 - 3000 rpm since replacing?

[@JaniVoutilainen]
