CAUTION: Only rotate the crankshaft clockwise.

Check that the position of the Variable Valve Timing (VVT) unit and crankshaft keyway are positioned as indicated. If the VVT units are not positioned as indicated, rotate the crankshaft clockwise until the correct crankshaft keyway and VVT unit positions are achieved.
CAUTION: Do not tension the tie strap at this stage.

Loosely install the tie strap around the timing chain guide on the non-tensioned side and the timing chain on the tensioned side, as illustrated.
CAUTION:
- Note the orientation of the tie strap in the illustration before applying tension.
- Make sure the tension is maintained on the timing chain.
1. Carefully position the tie strap between the timing chain and the timing chain guide, as shown in the illustration.
1. Apply sufficient tension to the tie strap to limit the chain movement whilst the timing chain tensioner and timing chain guide are removed.
Remove the timing chain tensioner.
Remove the timing chain guide bolt.
Remove the timing chain guide.
CAUTION:
- If the vehicle is fitted with components shown in section 1 of the illustration, these must be replaced with components shown in section (2).
- Do not attempt to install the components shown in section 1 of the illustration, as damage to the engine may occur.
Using the illustration, identify which timing chain tensioner and guide is currently fitted to the vehicle. Make sure the vehicle is assembled using components shown in section (2) of the illustration only.
CAUTION: Make sure that a new component is installed.

Install the timing chain guide.
Install the timing chain guide bolt.

Torque: 25 Nm
CAUTION:
- If the vehicle is Installed with components shown in section 1 of the illustration, these must be replaced with components shown in section (2).
- Do not attempt to install the components shown in section 1 of the illustration, as damage to the engine may occur.
Before installing the timing chain tensioners, use the illustration shown to identify which timing chain tensioner is currently fitted to the vehicle. Make sure the vehicle is assembled using components shown in section (2) of the illustration only. If a new timing chain tensioner is installed, do not deploy the tensioner pin and proceed to the next step. If the tensioner to be installed has previously been deployed, make sure the attached animation is followed to make sure the tensioner is set correctly, failure to do this may result in damage to the engine.
CAUTION: Do not release the timing chain tensioner locking pin at this stage.

Install the timing chain tensioner.

Apply and maintain tension on the component.
Remove the timing chain tensioner retaining pin and release the timing chain guide.
Remove and discard the tie strap.
The piston should apply tension to the timing chain guide.
The timing chain tensioner must maintain tension on the chain guide. If the piston can be pushed back so the chain guide contacts with the body of the tensioner, the tensioner is not correct. Repeat steps 70- 76.
CAUTION: Only rotate the crankshaft clockwise.

Rotate the crankshaft clockwise 90 degrees until the crankshaft keyway is positioned as indicated in the illustration.
CAUTION: Only rotate the crankshaft clockwise.

Check that the position of the Variable Valve Timing (VVT) unit and crankshaft keyway are positioned as indicated. If the VVT units are not positioned as indicated, rotate the crankshaft clockwise until the correct crankshaft keyway and VVT unit positions are achieved.
CAUTION: Do not tension the tie strap at this stage.

NOTE: Right side.

CAUTION:
- Note the orientation of the tie strap in the illustration before applying tension.
- Make sure the tension is maintained on the timing chain.
1. Carefully manipulate the tie strap between the timing chain and the timing chain guide, to the position illustrated.
2. Apply sufficient tension to the tie strap; allowing the timing chain to remain under tension, whilst the timing chain tensioner and timing chain guide are removed.
Remove the timing chain tensioner.
Remove the timng chain guide bolt.
Remove the timing chain guide.
