Important Technical Notes

Torque Multiplier Requirement

For removal of the crankshaft pulley bolt, a torque multiplier is required.
Torque specifications must be adjusted according to the gear ratio 1:5.

Camshaft Adjuster Preload

Camshaft adjuster control valves must be preloaded with:

6 Nm counterclockwise (left-hand direction)

Use of a friction torque gauge is recommended (item.no. 118535).

General Notes

Timing chain is removed upward together with camshaft adjusters
Camshaft adjuster control valves are NOT interchangeable

Timing Adjustment Procedure

Crankshaft

The spring-loaded flywheel locking pin fixes the crankshaft at 118.14° after TDC
With the tool installed, the crankshaft must not rotate
During loosening/tightening operations, the locking pin should be removed
→ Only the locking tooth should absorb torque loads

Camshaft

Camshaft markings:
- “E” (exhaust) and “I” (intake) must align
- Position approx. 1 o’clock / 11 o’clock
Single notches behind the first camshaft bearing must be at 12 o’clock
Camshaft locking tool (item.no. 122927, use as EN-52484) is inserted into these notches
Camshafts may need slight rotation using a wrench

Before tightening camshaft control valves:

Adapters must be preloaded with 6 Nm counterclockwise
Then fixed using the clamping screws

Balance Shaft

Base position is approx. 8 o’clock (flat side orientation)

High-Pressure Fuel Pump

Must be removed for valve cover disassembly
Before installation, correct stroke must be checked using tool (item.no. 122923)

Procedure:

Insert alignment tool with “2” marking facing upward
Rotate crankshaft if necessary until cam lobe is in base circle position
In this position, the tool aligns with the cylinder head

Crankshaft Seal

Located in the front timing cover
Installed using mounting sleeve

Guide pins (item.no. 122926, use as EN-582483) are included for:

Timing cover
Crankshaft
Oil pan

Procedure is identical for transmission-side seal.
