This adjustment is to be made with a cold engine. Suitable temperature is approximately 20°C/68°F.

At higher temperatures (with the engine at operating temperature or a high outside temperature for example) the indicator is further to the right.

The graphic shows the position of the indicator when aligning the timing belt tensioner at approximately 20°C/68°F.

NOTE: There are two different tensioners depending on model year.

Fix the belt tensioner center screw in position and turn the belt tensioner eccentric counterclockwise until the tensioner indicator passes the marked position and reaches the end position. Then turn the eccentric back so the indicator reaches the marked position shown. Tighten the center screw. See Summary of specific components and tightening torques .

Check that the indicator is in the correct position.
