DIY guide to replacing the secondary timing chain tensioners on a 2001 Jaguar XJR 4.0 V8 Supercharged. Please note that this is not by any means an official how to guide, merely a look at how I did it. This is not a manufacturer sanctioned procedure and is highly risky. It did work for me however, but as such this video is for entertainment purposes only. The video gives you a good idea of how damaged the old timing chain tensioners can be.

Good job, while you were in there, did you look at your guides? I have a video on my channel named 1998 Jaguar Tensioner issues. It shows the progress..
just as a curiosity, before you started the job, did you have any symptoms other than the noise? Also, was there any slack in the tensioners after you bolted them down and removed the little tab thing (i.e. does it take starting the car and letting them fill with oil for it to be fully tensioned?)
