2007-2013 Toyota Corolla Timing Chain Tensioner Replacement Αντικατάσταση Εντατήρα Καδένας Χρονισμού 

Muchas gracias mi querido amigo de Argentina y me alegra que este video te haya ayudado a entender la forma correcta de instalar y operar este tensor. Saludos desde Grecia.

Thank you my friend. Since your car had an oil leak, has your engine level dropped quite low? Below the low indicator?

@@YiannisPagonis No it hasn't, just a few drops here and there but for a car with 250k miles and never leaked I want to keep it like that! Matter of fact, the leak is NOT from tensioner. I believe it's the oil filter cap-replacing it this weekend.

@@Dieselhorses You too can repair it yourself as soon as possible. Never put off until tomorrow something you can do today

De nada mi amigo de Venezuela. Mis cordiales saludos desde Grecia.

Thank you my friend and don't forget that as long as we live and try we learn a lot of good and bad things. That's life!!!

Thank you so much my friend 🙏🙏

You are welcome

Muchas gracias amigo. Afortunadamente también existe Google Translate que facilita las cosas.

You are welcome my friend

Symptoms of a Bad or Failing Timing Chain Tensioner a. Engine may stall or run rough. b. Noise in the front of the engine (a rattle or rumble, associated with engine speed) c. Check Engine Light may illuminate and set misfire, camshaft sensor, and crankshaft sensor codes. d. Broken timing chain. ... e. Worn timing chain. This problem will have the exact symptoms of a stretched chain. ... f. Stretched timing chain. Over time, the timing chain is going to stretch due to wear. ...

@@YiannisPagonis Awesome. So not a general maintenance item unless something is wrong. I like learning about these things, but honestly I have enough to do already.

@@sladeg9471 SO, WHY REGULAR CAR SERVICE IS IMPORTANT? REGULAR SERVICING ENSURES SAFETY Regular car service is vital to your safety, only because it can nip any potential car issues in the bud before they become sure-fire problems. This ensures that your car will not let you down when you need it the most. You don’t want your car to break-down on you in the middle of nowhere, do you? Regular servicing and maintenance reassure you that your car is in optimum road-worthy condition, thus lending you peace of mind regarding safety. REGULAR CAR SERVICE ENSURES AN IMPROVED LIFE SPAN OF YOUR VEHICLE. A well-maintained car improves life span, thus ensuring that your car will be your loyal partner for many years to come. Similarly, a fine-tuned, serviced engine greatly improves the performance of your car, keeping it in road-worthy, mint condition for a much longer time. REGULAR CAR SERVICE IMPROVES THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR CAR The car is made up of a number of different parts. If one part starts to fail, it could affect how the whole car runs. Every part needs to be in tip-top shape to run smoothly like any well-oiled machine. Servicing your car at regular intervals ensures that every part of the car works smoothly, improving the overall performance of the car. REGULAR CAR SERVICE KEEPS THE CAR COMPONENTS SAFE Regular car service ensures that the most crucial components of your car- its cooling system, brakes, tyres, suspension, etc. are working with clockwork smoothness. This keeps them in top working condition for years to come. REGULAR SERVICING SAVES YOU MONEY IN THE LONG RUN Regular car service ensures that any potential issues in the technical aspects of the car are dealt with speedily and on time before they become full-blown concerns, which may cost a bomb to repair. As they say, a stitch in time saves nine. REGULAR CAR SERVICE ENSURES FUEL EFFICIENCY A car that goes for regular car service and car maintenance gives huge dividends in fuel efficiency too. Regular changing of oil, coolants, radiator fluid, and other vital fluids vastly improve fuel efficiency, thus giving you better mileage and more bang for your fuel buck! REGULAR SERVICING INCREASES THE WORTH OF YOUR CAR If you plan to sell your car at a later date or go in for an upgrade, then a car that has undergone regular car service and car maintenance will definitely attract more prospective buyers. This will get you a better selling price, than a car that has rarely been serviced and shows signs of poor maintenance. REGULAR CAR SERVICE IS GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT A poorly maintained car spews more environment-damaging fumes and emissions into the air because of clogged exhausts and unchanged oil and other fluids, as compared to a car that undergoes regular servicing and maintenance. By giving your car regular car service, you thus reduce your carbon footprint and do your bit for the environment. Regular servicing extends engine life Engine oil loses its effectiveness over time. It needs to be replaced regularly to avoid the building up of sludge. Regular car service ensures that oil is changed at regular intervals. This in turn extends engine life.

Ναι αυτό που λες είναι πιθανόν να συμβεί αλλά πρέπει πρώτα να το τεστάρις μόνος σου

What is P0017? P0017 is a generic powertrain code that stands for “Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation (Bank 1 Sensor B).” This code indicates that the crankshaft and camshaft position sensor for the Bank 1 exhaust camshaft don't correlate signals with each other.

@@YiannisPagonis yes I know, but it also shows Possible problems with timing chain tensioner, and more. There's a real bad oil leak(gunked up) in the area near the tensioner, I had the crankshaft sensor replaced but not any camshaft sensors yet.

@@christymarie1413 My dear lady, all these problems you mention and possibly others that you are not aware of should be repaired as soon as possible so that the condition of your car does not worsen and in the end it is out of service. And as the ancient Greek tragedian Sophocles (496-406 BC) said, "A thousand evils are ahead". Thanks.

Lo primero amigo, ¿has puesto exactamente la brida del diámetro correcto? ¿Entonces es igual que el anterior? Si es así, aplique un poco de aceite a la junta para que sea más fácil de insertar.

La brida no es el problema, el tensor entra pero cuando falta menos de un centimegro para entrar totalmente encuentra un tope, en ese tope se suelta el ganchito y se dispara no dejandome acomodarlo. Creo que voy a palanquearlo antes que se tire el gancho.

Hola mi amigo de Argentina. No, no es necesario poner el motor en el punto muerto superior antes de quitar el tensor y no hay peligro de que los árboles de levas se muevan al quitar el tensor. Al retirar el tensor hay que tener cuidado de no mover el coche en absoluto de su posición y también de no arrancar el motor. Simplemente sigue las instrucciones en video.

@@YiannisPagonis muchas gracias por responder apenas pueda lo voy hacer.. el oring esta viejo y pierde aceite, ensucio bastante el motor. Gracias

@@carloschiconi6405 Cambia la junta tórica amigo

Not exactly my friend. You probably did not notice well. First I turned the crankshaft counterclockwise (turning the rear of the vehicle) to release the plunger from the hook and then I turned the crankshaft clockwise (towards the front of the vehicle)

@@YiannisPagonis understood. Thank you!

@@zr2597 You are welcome my friend

What car do you have my friend?

@@YiannisPagonis 2010 Matrix, 1.8L, same as Corolla the 2zrfe engine

@@YiannisPagonis also only 96k miles. Bought it used so not sure if previous owners maintenance could have affected the chain health.

@@abiboocock276 The P0017 error code means there might be an issue with your engine's camshaft and crankshaft. These two vital components must be perfectly synchronized for your car's engine to perform at the optimum level. If they are not in sync, your engine could malfunction and may trigger the P0017 code on an OBD-II scan tool.

Hola amigo. Sonidos de traqueteo Una de las primeras señales de que la cadena de distribución está pidiendo atención es un ruido inusual que emana del compartimento del motor. Este sonido de metal contra metal se produce cuando la cadena de distribución se ha aflojado o cuando el tensor está desgastado.

You are welcome my friend ❤❤❤❤

Όλα είναι πιθανά να συμβούν (κάποια στιγμή), γιατί δεν το έκανες με τον ενδεδειγμένο τρόπο. Μπορεί κάποιο δόντι γραναζιού στροφαλοφόρου ή εκκεντροφόρου άξονα να έχει υποστεί χτύπημα από την καδένα χρονισμού λόγω χαλαρότητας αυτής

@@YiannisPagonis Γιατί Δν το ήξερα.. Νόμιζα ότι μόνο δεξιόστροφα πρέπει να γυρίσει.Και εκεί την πάτησα.Αν είχε κάποιο θέμα μέχρι τώρα Δν τα είχε βγάλει;;;

@@kostasmylonas3714 Απ'ότι φαίνεται, μετά από χρόνια που συνέβει αυτό, μάλλον δεν θα έχεις κάποιο πρόβλημα

Just replace it

@@mayorgapm it's a new part from the dealer. When fully compressed it won't go in the bore on the engine fully. It sticks out about 1/4". So I don't know how to proceed.

@@Steve-qs9eq make sure the o ring is not what is causing it to stop. As Yiannis installed it looked like he pushed a little more due to the o ring. that's the only thing I could figure.

@@camilocastro7215 I got it sorted by applying some pressure to the back of the tensioner and wrenching it slowly down. 👍 Thanks for the reply though.

From ethiopia

Amigo como puedes ver claramente en el video hacemos lo siguiente: primero armamos (bloqueamos) el émbolo tensor, luego lo colocamos en su lugar y finalmente giramos el tornillo del cigüeñal en sentido antihorario para desbloquearlo y tensarlo. Todo esto se hace con la ayuda de la cadena de distribución. 5:05

Muchas gracias me podrás corregir.compre un tensor con gasket y no viene con el anillo de hule....funcionará solo con el gasket?

@@RicardoHernandez-xq7hn ¿Qué auto tienes amigo (modelo, año del auto, centímetros cúbicos)?

2009 toyota corolla 1.8

@@RicardoHernandez-xq7hn ¿Cuál es el VIN de su vehículo?

¿Cuál es exactamente tu problema?

Creo que aun no salió el seguro del tensor y le di marcha, será que perdió la sincronizacion? Hoy buscaré un mecánico

@@grillony1977 Cuando instaló el tensor en el motor, ¿giró el perno del cigüeñal en sentido contrario a las agujas del reloj para soltar el gancho del pasador?

@@YiannisPagonis sí gire pero no estoy seguro si escuche el clic, le di marcha y ya no prende. Aun no le llevo al mecanico

@@grillony1977 Bueno, lo que puede hacer es verificar las marcas de sincronización de la cadena para ver si se han movido fuera de lugar tanto en el cigüeñal como en el árbol de levas. Si estas marcas de sincronización se han movido, deberá volver a colocarlas en su lugar. También verifique que la cadena de distribución no esté floja. El siguiente video lo ayudará a encontrar los signos de sincronización del motor: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IaocNWX2vfY.html

Here, my friend, you are making a big mistake. If the engine rotation is done by the crankshaft pulley bolt clockwise (and not by the camshaft) then nothing bad is going to happen. We rotate the engine clockwise to check that everything is done correctly, as the car manufacturer (TOYOTA) instructs
