If you are not replacing the variators and remove the cam instead to let the chain out, do you need to re"wind" or preload the variators to the 20 ft. lbs.? Can you just reassemble making sure the marks match before pulling the pins?
Evan, I can't thank you enough for this video. I am still waiting on a few parts to come in before I do this job. I might be asking you a few questions during my job. My LR4 sprung an oil leak, and I thought it was the Vacuum Pump Gasket. Changed that gasket but still have a leak coming from higher up.
there is an on going class action lawsuit against JLR on the affected models with timing chain issues, every single owner should get involved and let the land rover stealership fix their shit product.
But why they say that you need to change the flexplate if the pin lock of the crank flexplate is in and the woodruff key is not on 6 ocklock? Does it move out of place over time? It shouldnt? So what should you go after? They square on the flexplate or the 6 oclock position if they dont match?
Good job until the injector installation! I was shocked to see you are using the puller to install the injectors which made me think that you didn't use the teflon seal shrinking tool/installer.
The injectors will go in by hand if you are using the proper injector seal tools, meaning the teflon seals must be pre-shrunk before installation. The actual tool kit is inexpensive and is a must when installing the injectors.
By installing the injectors in with the puller and seeing how you hammer them in I can't help be worry that your teflon seals are compromised!
Question… For the left side timing cam cover, how did you remove it without breaking that coolant "T" tab that bolts onto the cover?
How much would a job like this cost the owner of the vehicle?

Not that mechanically inclined, so for me, solution never buy a Range Rover or anything with this type of motor.
Where are you from? I'm looking for someone to change my chains.
Evan, do you happen to have the part number(s) for the friction washers?

Did you replace the chains, or just the tensioner s?
Nice video thanks for putting it up
so… when can I drop off my 5.0L supercharged to get this same service done by you? please advise, thanks

At 15:14 the one thing everyone fails to record. Pre. Tensioning the sprockets
