Renault/Nissan/Dacia K9K 1.5 DCi Cambelt Replacement

How to replace the cambelt on a Renault/Nissan 1.5 DCI K9K engine.
This engine has been in production since 2001 and has seen service in a Vast array of cars from the Renault and Nissan stable including
Renault: Clio, Thalia, Fluence, Modus, Scenic, Kangoo, Captur
Nissan: Micra, Note, Qashqai, Juke, NV200
Dacia: Duster, Sandero, Logan,
Suzuki: Jimny
Mercedes: A Class, B Class, CLA, Citan
It is a very extensive range of vehicles that this engine has ben used in. The car feaured in this video is a 2011 Renault Grand Modus. The modus is possibly one of the more cramped engine bays that this engine was fitted to. However with a few bits of plastic trim out of the way it actually isnt all too bad. The lack of room to pull the alternator forward in the modus did mean it was handier to remove the fuel pump sprocket but it was all very much something that can be done DIY. Estimates for labour rates would be between £250-£400. The total for a Gates timing belt kit, a water pump from a local motor factors came in at under £100, the belt was fitted over a weekend and this included the time taken to film the process.

You can save alot of time by removing the screen wash tank. It's held in with one bolt. Once you have removed tank you can put fuel filter and pipes in the space created saving having to disconnect fuel lines and bleeding the fuel system.

[@russellwalker9177]

A truly excellent video. Everything aspect of the process is mentioned, which other videos have not covered. I really appreciate the time and effort you have taken in producing the tutorial. Wish me luck on my Kangoo 1.5Dci - I have the timing pins, water pump, cambelt kit etc, just need the Female Torx driver. Where on the sump do you support the engine? I had a look, there seems to be a reinforced area next to the clutch - is that correct, or is better to support the engine closer to the crankshaft?

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Thank you very much for the kind comment, best of luck with this job and let me know how a kangoo compares to a modus for accessibility of parts. The female torx was one that came as part of a halfords 200 piece socket set, although ebay etc will have them available on their own. Supporting the engine, that transmission jack i used is about as big as the sump but i was positioned closer to the cambelt side of the engine. The gearbox is holding the engine on the other side. If you are using a jack with a narrow contact point use a piece of wood to distribute the pressure.

[@russellwalker9177]

@@peugeotCitroen2CV HI, I now have a full set of Female Torx bits for the job. I have a further question; at 9:58, you take off the crankshaft pulley bolt, using your cordless impact wrench. The K9K workshop manual I have (which I see from the video, you also have), states that the flywheel should be locked with a screwdriver, when removing the bolt, but it doesn't specify how to do this. I have seen discussions on forums stating that using a large screwdriver could damage the ring gear. Sealy do a flywheel locking tool (SEVS1284), but I cannot see how this would engage with the flywheel, other than removing the starter motor, to insert the tool into the flywheel teeth, and even then, how would the tool be secured? Did you use any sort of tool to lock the flywheel for this job? I bought a Parkside (Lidl) PDSS 310 A3 Air Impact Driver, which supposedly can produce 310Nm of Torque, but it struggles to provide more than 70Nm (using 6.3 Bar from my 50L Compressor), and couldn't even remove the wheel bolts, tightened to 100Nm, so manual removal of the bolt may be needed. I have a K9K-718, with a 14mm crankshaft bolt, so the torque to remove it will be higher than for the 12mm variant. Any advice?

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

@@russellwalker9177 I only ever use the impact wrench to remove these bolts, one of the main reasons i bought it was to do crankshaft pulley bolts. Its the hassle of removing starters when the impact wrench removes it without the hassle. Although that is how those flywheel locking tools work, remove the starter and the locking tool engages with the flywheel teeth and is held in place at one of the starter bolt holes. What i bought initially was a Clarke CEW1000 mains operated impact wrench £80 www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Clarke-Electric-Impact-Wrench-CEW1000/200666941284?epid=4025819613&hash=item2eb8ae8764:g:aoMAAOxyyF5ROxfc A handy bit of kit for the price, a bit heavy and cumbersome compared to the milwaukee cordless item but it got the job done. Lidl sell parkside mains operated impact wrenches from time to time, they generally pack a good punch for their price. The parkside air tools are good, although the 50L air compressor lidl sell can struggle even at blowing up tyres. Their air tools if you get them connected to a bigger air compressor preform quite well. The milwaukee may seem expensive i think it was over £300 but it worked out cheaper than a 200L compressor, hose and impact wrench and can go anywhere without a hose trailing it.

Great video, but is it not necessary to loosen the bolts on the camshaft wheel and rotating it to set the timing for the new belt correctly? Thank you for your answer.

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

It is there if you need some fine adjustment with the locking pin in and count less or more than 19 teeth between the mark on the fuel pump and camshaft sprockets. However if the car was running fine before and the bolts are tight and the belt slips on easily with the locking pin in place then the bolts can be left alone.

Great video, again. I started to watch your videos about Peugeot 305, because I have Peugeot 309 diesel, and they are simmilar. I change CV boots on driveshafts without loosing nedle bearings, thanks to you. Now I prepare to change timing belt on my second car, 2007 Megane 1.5dci 78kw. My question about this video is, what is needed impact wrench torque in Nm for unscrew crankshaft pully? How to know which impact wrench is power enough to unscrew that bolt?

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Hi there, thanks for the comment and great to hear from a 309 owner. Yes 305, 205, 309 very similar cars to work on. I am not sure of the exact torque figure needed to remove the bolt. Although the guide does state 120Nm when reinstalling it. However i use a Milwaukee M18 1/2 Cordless impact wrench i think it develops somewhere in the region of 600Nm, although it may be a bit pricey. The mains operated impact wrenches have a good amount of pardon the cliche 'bang for their buck' i had a clarke CEW1000 which was quite good. Lidl sell a parkside one from time to time.

[@mitotoyo9397]

@@peugeotCitroen2CV Thanks for answering, mate. unscrewing crankshaft pully bolt is not a big problem. Bigger problem is to screw it on specified torque. Is it possible to screw it against crankshaft locking tool in position. Will it brake and fall in to engine block?

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

mito toyo I just put on some locktite and install the bolt with just enough force to leave it tight, a light rattle of the impact gun does plenty. Obviously holding the impact gun on the bolt and going at it for too long could damage the bolt. However if you want to torque it to spec and want to lock the engine one option easier than the flywheel locking tool is to put the car in gear and put a screwdriver into the cooling fins of both brake disks. The gearbox will then essentially lock the engine and the screwdriver will have the effect of locking the wheels from moving. Another option is to put it in gear and have someone press the brake pedal.

[@anilraj9908]

Great video. Is it necessary to change the water pump during timing belt replacement? Also what is the risk of running the car without lower timing case cover. I ve a Renault logan though.

[@kingkongnarek]

No only if you water pump leaks and you can only see if it leeks when you take the timing belt covers off. And its a risk to drive without the cover since dirt or even small rocks you never know can get between the belt

[@cristianojoana1898]

Who likes to test the timing belt before mounting al things make sure to install the cranck pulley or will slip out... the tensor doesnt have wall to guide it so only the cranck pulley will..

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

At that stage the fuel filter was disconnected so the car would not have started, a few turns over on the starter motor will not do that. It gives a view of the timing belt spinning with the covers removed. However yes with the crankshaft pulley removed the belt could potentially wander off the sprockets if the engine was started up and running at normal speed for any length of time. The crankshaft pulley ensures that the cambelt does not wander off.

[@cristianojoana1898]

Yes exactly, it happened to me first time i did a timing belt on one of these 1.5dci.. i did many timing belts and it never happened because i like to test before mounting all back again... so then i saw must be the tensioner that doesnt have wall... because the tension on the belt is right... So installed the cranck pulley then its ok .. Great video btw!

Sorry to be a pain. Regards Jay

Hello my friend thank you so much for sharing this video, i can imagine how much work has gone into producing this very detailed video for us all. Can i ask one question please, i am about to do this on a 2011 Qashqai same K9K engine and have looked at various instructions from HGS data Autodats and Alldata, they all make mention of removing one and loosening two of the bolts on the cam shaft i see the cam shaft has slots in it but noticed you didnt loosen those bolts any idea why this is advised please? Thanks again for all your hard work. Kind regards Jay

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Hi It is a vernier type camshaft it can be adjusted help fit the belt a bit better. I had a citroen c5 v6 a few years ago where i adjusted them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5ykaXyLa7R2isk Around the 16:00 mark onwards for that bit It was useful on that engine as a quad cam V6 there were 4 sprockets to line up with the belt. The wee bit of adjustment provided that in them. However i find that on these K9K engines with their single camshaft sprocket the adjustment is not entirely necessary. By all means read over the guides you have, it was referenced also in the official Renault guide i followed but i did not find it necessary to touch it. The engine was held at TDC, the new belt fitted with no issues, and the car runs fine. Be aware of what it does and make the judgement on how it is sitting in your car as to weather it needs adjusted.

[@jaykent6645]

@@peugeotCitroen2CV Hello again, thank you for that kind response, it makes sense now, so long as the inner camshaft sprocket is locked to the head with the pin the crankshaft sprocket is locked via the access hole front of engine and the HP sprocket is locked it wont effect the timing if the outer camshaft sprocket moves rotates via the 3 bolts,...... me thinks!

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Its been a while now, i think at the time i gave it a reasonably good staring at, including the factory manual which suggested removing the fuel pump pulley. I think the alternator stuck out in such a way that it prevented it sliding down thats why the pulley came off.

Hello me again, when you removed the fuel pump sprocket was it on a keyway to ensure it goes back in the right place? Also i see u placed two of the white line marks on the cam belt over the marks on the cam and pump sprocket but i note there are two more white lines further along on the cam belt do these need to match up somewhere on the crankshaft sprocket? Thank you kindly in advance. Kind regards Jay😊

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Hi Jay Yes from memory the sprocket uses a woodruf key to send drive through to the cam. The two lines, i sometimes put two marks onto each sprocket and two lines that match up with them on the engine block or nearest stationary part. I just find it adds a bit more 'resolution' if that is the right word. Rather than be out a wee bit trying to line up to one line if you work to line it back up so the two marks are lined up again it just makes double sure the cam is in the same place again. Normally one line will do fine, but its just something i do.

Hi there, if i haven't included the torque figure in the video itself then i was not able to find it in the Renault guide. Generally I'll only use the torque wrench on head bolts if changing a head gasket, and wheel bolts after changing brake disks for the first time. You generally get used to how much torque is needed for each bolt to tighten them by hand.

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Hi, That bolt is torqued to 120Nm to begin with. That is then followed by an angular tightening of 95°. To do that you consider 0° to be where the ratchet begins tightening following the 120Nm step, turn it by 95 degrees from where it starts. A cheap way to do this is cut a piece of paper with markings for the desired angle and stop the ratchet when it points at the angle. www.demon-tweeks.com/sealey-technicians-angular-torque-gauge-1-2-inch-sq-drive-vs530-seavs530/?istCompanyId=a2904180-3a7d-4e56-b876-cf81c9512180&istFeedId=0f6db192-3a9a-4369-b1f8-79615c622f96&istItemId=wptrirall&istBid=t

Great post again. Lovely! Yet another video about "stupid engineering"... So much stuff to be removed. Think of how much it would cost if done by a garage. If Renault want to completely build in the engine, they should make it a timing chain engine. IMHO...

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Is it really that bad? I changed this timing belt and don't really consider it stupid engineering its all fairly DIY friendly, just approach it with a can do attitude. I estimate £250 - 400 for a garage to do this, although some independent mechanics may do it cheaper. Of course armed with this video, a jack, axle stands a socket set and the locking pins it could be done at home. Most transverse front wheel drive cars require a fair bit of stripping to get to the timing belt, the modus appears daunting at first but once the scuttle panels are out it is grand. As for chains they are susceptible to stretching, plastic guides snapping or tensioners failing and cost considerably more than a belt would cost to replace both in terms of parts and labour, the K12 micra for example, if i see one in the auctions making the rattling noise of a stretched chain i would run away from it, the same car equipped with this 1.5 DCI with no record of a belt its easy enough to sort out.

The crankshaft outer pulley that drives the auxillary belt on this engine still seems to have a keyway although its not necessary to time the auxillary belt to anything, never removed the inner crankshaft sprocket on this engine, i assume it would be keyed if the outer part was. Its a nuisance when they omit the keyway for this and just use friction not sure why other than the accountants demanding pennies to be saved.

Google translate has gave me "Paula gathered. Preshovage with Pola Heat Engine" i assume it has got the translation wrong.
