Replacing pads at the timing chain of a Porsche 944 S2

[@fredhandrix]

Your videos are very, very useful. Clear, straight to the point with all the valuable little details. Please keep us posted !

This is excellent, thank you!

[@schrockahasi]

Very Helpful. Thank you!

[@carpitecture]

Great instructional again by the master. Thank you for doing these.

[@JohnJ-86951]

Thank you very much! That helped me out a lot.

[@davidwebster7624]

Thank you for your videos. I wish you were my neighbor so I could ask for help with my 89 turbo.

[@irina25661]

Hi, yeah, since I make these videos, I have a lot new friends. Greetings, Jürgen

[@ricksays7133]

It looks so much easier with the 944S2. I wonder if this procedure is similar with the 968. last time I read that the camshafts have to be removed in the 968 to change its pads!

[@tropicrec]

I heard that too. Would someone confirm. Do the cams have to be removed in 968?

[@ricksays7133]

Tropical Recording. Com From what I have learned from a pdf instructions I found in Rennlist, the camshafts have to be removed.

Good job on the video. So what would happen if you drop one of the washers from an oil line? Would you need to strip the whole engine out to find it?

[@irina25661]

Hi, with a good chance, the washer will move to the oil pan and there it will remain, because before the oil pump is a sieve. But following the textbook you'll strip the engine. Greetings, Jürgen

[@TheThoraxs]

@@irina25661 yea that would be the best solution, I was lucky enough that it got stuck in an oil channel, and I was able to use a wire on the endoscope to fish it out. Still great job on the instruction videos. Many thanks for doing them.

[@ulrichbeumling6357]

Gratulation! Ihr macht das wirklich sehr anschaulich und verständlich und das auch noch ohne dabei den Humor zu vergessen! Frage: ist dieses Verfahren auch bei der Vario-Cam (968) durchführbar?

[@irina25661]

Hallo, leider habe ich für den 968 noch kein Video. Das Prinzip der Einstellung ist ähnlich, aber die Nockenwellenverstellung muss während der Messung durch Druckluft von 3 Bar auf Stellung gehalten werden und der Einstellwert ist 0.39 +/- 0,03. Viele Grüße, Jürgen

[@ulrichbeumling6357]

@@irina25661 Danke, lieber Jürgen. Ich wollte das nur wissen, weil ich den Werkstätten generell so weit traue, wie man ein Klavier werfen kann. Somit ist ein wenig Hintergrundwissen immer gut. Und das habe ich in Deinen Videos reichlich bekommen. Meine Neuerwerbung hat etwas über 70.000 km gelaufen und die Zahnriemen nebst Wellendichtringen sind fällig. Vom Kettenbereich hört man nichts; der Motor läuft "seidenweich".

[@ulrichbeumling6357]

Wenn es nicht so weit weg wäre hätte ich Dir den 968er gerne zu treuen Händen übergeben.

[@ChrisCjwilson]

Thanks enjoyed a very professional and informative lesson, One question you said to check all bolt holes for oil before replacing the head, why is this? ( what is the issue if there is oil in them?)

[@irina25661]

Hi, oil enters in the holes when the old gasket wasn't tight. If you screw a bolt in an oil filled hole, you'll try to compress the oil. In extrem cases the material around the hole might break. Greetings, Jürgen

[@ChrisCjwilson]

Thanks thats great information and makes total sense. keep up the great tutorials !!!

[@tinomolla1886]

hello, greetings from Spain. I have a 944s, where can I buy that repair kit?

[@irina25661]

Hi partworks partworks.de/en-partworks-de/ should have it. Greetings, Jürgen

[@Bigpuma87]

Super Video! Schade nur, dass Partworks die obere Gleitschiene nicht einzeln anbietet bzw beide im Set. Man ist gezwungen einen Kettensatz zu kaufen, obwohl die Kette nie kaputt geht. Ist in meinen Augen leider Abzocke.

[@irina25661]

Hallo, die obere Schiene gibt es bei Porsche einzeln. Viele Grüße, Jürgen

[@Bigpuma87]

@@irina25661 Hätte ich das mal früher gewusst. Danke für die Info. 👍

[@edelgourmet2511]

Richtig! Die obere kostet bei Porsche unter 10 EUR. Die untere habe ich ebenfalls bei Partworks bestellt. Der Satz bei Porsche kostet 110,- EUR. So kann man über 50,- EUR sparen.

[@SacreDro]

For a 2003 Audi A4 1.6 petrol do you recommend for the valve cover gasket to use Viktor Reintz or some other brand like Elring or go for oem?

[@DaytonCarCare]

Is this repair the same on the 1994 968 3.0 4 cylinder engine?

[@irina25661]

Hi, the 968 has a variocam system. Thus there are some differences. But no problem, we just planing a tutorial for this subject. Greetings, Jürgen

[@DaytonCarCare]

@@irina25661 the issue I’m having is a noise that sounds like a cam chain but I’m beginning to think it’s the balance shafts

[@Pablo944T]

Thank you, the information in this video was very useful. I am currently doing this job on my 944S but unfortunately for me the oil pipeline snapped. I am worried because I did notice that there was only one bolt holding the chain tensioner in place and the reason there was only one bolt is because the hole it screws into on the head was broken off. Do you have any advice or experience with this?

[@irina25661]

Hi, in this video you see my approach: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnusq418md12hZI Greetings, Jürgen

Vielen Dank.

[@vicky-nc3to]

I have bought cam tensioner complete assembly for my 928, they are new & right now no oil inside them.. do u have any idea how should I pretension them before installation? Right now there is no tension in them Thanks

[@irina25661]

Hi, strange. There should be a mechanical spring inside, holding them pretentioned. Is your tensioner really freely movable up and down? Greetings, Jürgen

[@vicky-nc3to]

@@irina25661 thanks. I have found the issue while comparing the new Vs old assembly, the new assembly on bank 2 was the one which was suspect as there was no spring force I could feel .. actually the piston inside was struck, I don't know how .....I took a small screwdriver & pulled it a bit out, than as it came out there was spring force... Hope I make sense to you

[@irina25661]

@@vicky-nc3to Fine, that means all is okay now. By the way I had also once an old tensioner which was stuck. As long this happens only when the piston is maximum out, that's no problem. In normal operation the piston doesn't reach this position. Greetings, Jürgen

[@ralphtorres3463]

well done irina25661 thumbs up! can you do a video abs troubleshoot in passat?

[@nelsonhugs1383]

How many KM was on the 944s2 when you did this change? i have a 1988 944S and i dont know if mine needs to be changed. It has 150 000km. I took a look at it yesterday and the groves dont look to deep.

[@irina25661]

Hello, for the car in the video I don't remember the mileage. Generally it's a good idea to replace the pads every 120 000 km. I know from several S2 engines which died with a mileage around 150 000 km. Greetings Jürgen

[@AndrewClelland]

Out of interest, how long did this take you?

[@bigbro5267]

Good afternoon. What is the tightening torque (N. m) required for the timing chain pad? And the oil pipe?

[@irina25661]

Hi, for the pads the manual gives no value. The torque for the oil pipe is 10 Nm. Greetings, Jürgen

[@bigbro5267]
