A brief description of how the mk4 ford mondeo 2l diesel engine upper timing chain is fitted and timed up. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Alan You don't know how useful your videos are, very precious thanks mate.
Hello Allan. I just want to leave a piece of information here, when replacing this chain you will need to add a 3mm thick gasket sealant around the oil feed for the chain tensioner. If somehow the sealant gets to the oil feed hole, you will have a bad time. I inserted a drill bit to check if it's clear and I removed a chunk about half the hole diameter that could have issues for lubricating the chain and tensioner, so be advised!
Thank you, sir, for this detailed explanation
Thanks for the informative video!
Danke für video. Hat mir sehr geholfen 😊😊😊
Interesting video as always. 👍😉
You are the Master Alan
Thanks
cheers🤣
Good job Al. Im liking it more and more. ;-)
Fantastic video
Hi Alan great job weldon.
Allen
You are a excellent teacher pal you how to do things the simple way
Making it easy not complicated briliant

Great job mann..!!!
cheers😜
Fantastic video ,tkanks
Fantastic 👍🏻
Thank you alan good man
Thanks for the video mate! Not much info about those engines. 👍
Excellent video. Truly 'safe and effective"
No,....really! Kind regards.
thanks michael
Thanks for the video. I have a same engine DW10C on a Fiat Scudo. 347.000km, Strange song on 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear between 2000RPM and 3000RPM. Sometimes a clac-clac song in 6th gear....
I replaced the freewheel alternator. Replaced some bearing on the gearbox. Some bad song disappear... I suppose it is this chain+tensioner responsible of the problem. I'll replace it this week end. The cost of operation (chain kit, timing belt kit + water pump): 200€
Hey mate I’ve got a similar issue, did that solve it for you?
Epic.
I need to show this video to my mechanic xD He was scared when I asked him if he is able to replace my timing chain.... I always change PROPER oil sooner than I should but even though my timing chain became louder for the last year =( Maybe I did something wrong or something else is the reason. Some people say that driving at too high speed on highways can cause issue with this Timing Chain.
Alan watched your videos for years mate.
Love your videos!
Will I know when the chains going I can hear a very tiny tippy rattle from that area but it's near as not even noticeable cars 200k and has FSH
Cheers Alan👍🏻💯
if the chain was noisey you would know about it...they get very loud and also i not had a chain go on any of our 14 plate taxis and most of them have done close to 300k now
@@alan4x Alan your s star for getting back to me mate! I've posted a video on my channel.. (latest video)
If you had a minute to listen yo it and give your feedback that would be amazing! But as I can imagine your mad busy so ok if not!
Thanks Alan all the best hopefully see u and moni in a video soon👍🏼💥💯
Hi alan. Have you a Sound example from noise of the timing chain?
Thx
Alan if the timing belt has been fitted one notch out can this have a effect on the chain
Alan, I plan on cleaning the inlet manifold and egr valve. Am I getting this right? I need to take EVERYTHING apart to get the manifold off the engine? Please tell me that that's not the case?
What's the correct torque to tight chain tensioner 3 bolts
Alan I've got a 2011 s max same engine as this one head gasket has gone would u recommend replacing or just put another engine in?
Hi Alan, watched a few of your videos now, what service interval and oil do you recommend for a 2.2tdci mondeo, 62plate
hi, you need a pretty good quality 5w/30 oil... any motor factors will sell the right oil....you should change the oil every 10k miles or once a year at least
Have you ever done the timing chain on a Jaguar X Type 2.0L and if so what were the circumstances.
Hi Alan , I have this engine in my 407 , I'm having a problem with a slight tick/tapping sound from the timing side when it's hot could this be my problem ? Ma y thanks if you could shed some light on it for me I'm thousands Into this car already and it's getting worrying now :(
Always use anaerobic sealants such as loctite 518 for cam carrier.
Hello, if I remove the valve cover to seal it because I have an oil leak, do I have to block the timing and remove the timing belt? Mondeo MK4 2.2 TDCi 175km q4ba
Damn. I have much driven mk4 with I think 560k km's in it's clock. It's not long a ago when I had belt changed, but now realized that I think chain is original. I have used Ford oem oil and changed it in time. But now I wonder how much km's will that chain take? I wonder if it's the chain or tappets that make some noise when it's still cold engine...
Hello Alan, I have a 2.0 tdci 136 Ford Focus and I having loss of power, all pipes were changed but I still having power loss from 1500 to 2000RPM I already have changed the turbo and besides the loss of power the car smoke like hell , my chain sound in cold, may be it the problem ?
Hi, Thanks for the videos they are very informative! I have a long story to explain. I apologize but I need help to resolve a long going issue.
I have a 2008 mondeo MK4 2.0L Diesel engine. I have had a nightmare and looking for some expert help and advice. About 1 month ago I decided to get an oil leak looked at as a local garage investigated and advised it was the camshaft seal leaking oil and needed replacing and as oil had affected the timing belt and chain and water pump would need replacing. I was advised by the garage the time to do this would be approx 3.5 hrs but they were too busy to do the job that week.
So here begins my nightmare! I decided not to wait until the next week when the garage was able to fix my car but instead I decided to use an online car mechanic service where a mobile mechanic comes to your house and does the job while your comfy at home and no need to leave your car all day at a garage and have to arrange a lift to leave it and pick it back up again. Sweet... I thought!
A mobile mechanic came the next day after I booked the job online for a set amount of hours 3.5 hrs and cost to replace the timing belt and water pump along with the camshaft seal replacement. I was very nervous the whole time as the guy seemed to be on his phone an awful lot which I presume he was asking for help and that he had already been working on it for 4hrs the car still looked nowhere near fixed. The total time the guy took was 8hrs to complete this job.
The mechanic turned the engine over and told me all was now fixed. This mechanic then proceeded to ask me to pay him more money for having working on the car longer than he should have done! I was gobsmaked and told him that I had already paid online the quoted price for the parts and labour time. The mechanic was visibly annoyed that I would not pay him more but left.
The very next morning I drove my car off the drive for the first time and all seemed fine until less than 1/4 mile my car came to a sudden halt after all power on a busy dual carriageway! The car would not turn over and I had to get it recovered to my house so that I could get the mechanic to look at it again. I called the mechanic and left a message for him to urgently contact me and I also called the online mechanic company to advise what had happened. Nobody called me back after 4 hours I managed to get into touch with the mechanic who came to fix my car. This mechanic said it was nothing he had done and that it was another a different fault that had just occurred as a coincidence and that why should he come out anyway when I would not pay him more money! he then proceeded to give me a barrage of abuse saying how unjust I was not paying him more after he had worked on my car for so long!
I contacted the online mobile mechanic service and gave them these same details as I have given here but you can not speak to anyone as it is online but can only message then and leave an online complaint and wait for the procedure. As it happened my complaint is also sent to the mechanic that came out and this company say I had to go through this mechanic to resolve the issue even when I advised them of what he said and that I had no trust in him. They said he has 48hrs to respond and come out again and after that if I still have a complaint they will arrange another mechanic to investigate in 3 days and all this time I have no car.
I proceeded to contact another mobile mechanic to come to my car to investigate and fix hoping to get my car back on the road and get a refund for the previous work done by the other mechanic.
A new mechanic came arranged by me and told me that it was a shoddy job done and that the previous mechanic had made numerous errors. Some of these errors were the fact he had not put any coolant in, there was plugs unplugged (I think for exhaust inlet?) something else was unplugged where had had jammed something in to stop the flywheel from moving, there he was still an oil leak and he was unsure of how reliable the work on the camshaft was completed. The new mechanic put coolant in and started the engine and got 100 yards before it stopped again. He put a computer on to diagnose and said an injector had also failed and needed replacing and that I would have to wait for a further 5 days to order one and comeback and replace it or he would go to scrap yard and get one for £60. So 3 days later still waiting I called the new mechanic and he said he could not get 1 injector but would only sell him the set of four. So I said ok do that just so I could get my car back on the road and £160 and another 2 days later the mechanic replaced the one faulty injector and I have now the other 3 not needed.
The car seemed fine for a couple of weeks but I noticed still an oil leak and also I was losing coolant fast! I have since been to another reputable garage who say the coolant leak is coming from under the car and that to get to it it needs the exhaust re-moving which is a big job and hence incorporated a heavy cost and that they would need to strip the exhaust out which is seized and needs bolts cutting to get the part number of the leaking hose so they can ask if dealer has the part or not. Also the garage said I have diesel leaking from the camshaft! This could all take a week to order the part and repair with no car again that's if I'm lucky!
So currently I have still an oil leak, diesel leak and water leak! Also no response from online mechanic company so no refund and compensation has been made!
Sorry to anyone who endeavored to read all this story. I have no idea where to go with this or what advise I'm actually asking for. I'm sure to everyone it would Seems the car needs scrapping but I'm so reluctant to do as it was my father who passed away and has sentimental value to me. I also annoyed that apart form the initial oil leak, this car never let me down in four years and drove beautifully never missing a beat. After starting the process to have a timing chain and water pump replaced all this has occurred and I don't believe its all a coincidence!
thanks for this story, it is unfortunate...there are plenty of bad mechanics out there who do bad work..i feel like making a video of this story lol
Really sorry for your story. Conclusion is if you have got some mechanics hands and skills, some few tools try to do it yourself. Always help yourself. Looking for on Internet forums.
Hi Alan, if fixing this problem, do you recommend to change the the hydraulic lifters? I have this noise from side of engine since i bout it(105k), after 20k mil i make it getting louder. I was told it may be hydraulic lifters, but now i see it would be this chain in fact. Thanks for great video! helped a lot.
ferko kurka b
Hi. If the lifters are not noisey to start with then just use the original ones.. will save unnecessary expenses
I have an important question. My car has traveled 260,000 thousand kilometers. When should I replace the chain? I don't know if it is iron or rubber
Hi Alan, you show a thin gasket at 7:39 in the video, Ive looked everywhere for it but doesn't seem to exist. Can you let me know if there is a link or place that does them, Ive got a 2011 (61 plate) mondeo 2.0 tdci automatic. Thanks.
Hey Alan, Im started watching your video, they are very informative and funny to watch :D But to search them is very difficult. For example I own Peugeot 307 with this 2.0 litres 100kW engine and Im searching youtube for "2.0 100 some trouble" and I cant find your videos, because you naming it differently :) I think you will get more views if you add original engine name in video title or atleast in description :)
hi, thanks, you are right, i do need to make these easier to find, thanks for the advise i will be making adjustments
What is the size of the timing pin and flywheel timing pin ?
How its done on 2.2 dw12c?
Hola cuál será el aceite de motor adecuado para éste motor de 2.0 ....de 2013....??? Gracias
After how many kilometers is this chain replaced? Very good recording, as always.
hi thanks, we run a fleet of taxi cabs, these cars have the oil changes every 10k miles,,, these cars are in many cases between 200-300k miles now...NEVER had a chain fail.
yet we get used cars in with rattling chains because they have not had the proper oil changes.......in my opinion....if your engine is serviced at the correct intervals you should never have to replace this chain
Thank you very much for this movie Alan. I wonder what could be the reason of noisy chain other than improper oil changes intervals. Is it always needed to replace this chain? I read about some situations when replacing this chain ( and surroundings ) didn't help! Maybe its enough to adjust something somewhere? ( e.g. improper tensor regulation ) I bough 2014 MK4 DW10C 2.0 163 hp some months ago. It has 60 kkm now. I've done 10 kkm myself. Oil was changed properly ( Ford Formula F 5W30 recommended by Ford service to this engine ). I just don't believe I have this issue after 60 kkm. I have also some vibrations in the cabin on idle only when its warm - but I guess Its something else. Thanks in advance for your advice ...
hi, it may have had poor oil changes before you got the car and the damage was almost done already....there are no adjustments..it would be best to fit new chain and tensioner and check oil way into tensioner from cylinder head is clear.
the vibration from cabin...try holding the air conditioner pipes where they go through the bulkhead into the car...if that stops it just insulate the pipes better
Hi sir .. what is the oil change interval recommended by your self as a mechanic rather than what it say in the manual .. for a taxi vehicle.. thank you
hi, we change the oil on the mk4 mondeos every 10k miles....some of the cars cover that mileage in two months
where can I see such an instruction for mk5
I thought chains never needed replacement? how many miles before it should be replaced?
شكرا
That's a lot of bolts. I'll stick to my oil changes. Cheers!
Hi Allan, one quick question, if it's not too much bother.
I have 200.000 miles with the engine and decided to change the belt.
I had a look at your other video about replacing the valve spring and thought "while I'm in there shouldn't it be a good idea to change all the valve seals at this mileage?"
What would you do, change them or leave them alone? Of course without removing the head.
I would hate to have to redo the work one year later because the car starts eating oil through those...
if it were me i would leave it alone, a number of our mk4 2l diesels are 250k plus and don't use any oil
Hi, my question is which is the best oil for this car, i've got a 2007 mk4 mondeo but the oil that ford recomend for this engine is not good for particle filters so i decide to put castrol 5/40 C3 i think, im not sure could be is c2 i dont remember now but..im not sure if its the best for my engine
The correct oil for this engine is A5. I know french cars with same engine use C3 wich is lower ash. But really, I don't think Ford were stupid enough to not know what oil is best for them. But, from all I've learned about C3 and A5, is that C3 is indeed an oil aimed at emissions and A5 is better for the engine. So unless an engine is burning oil the A5 should be as good for the DPF but better for the engine. Just use A5, and if you care about the DPF, quality diesel and long drives for regeneration are the best things to do.
Hi
Does this apply to all mk4 mondeo 2.0 tdci engines? I have a 2009 and its making a rattling noise from that area since cambelt change.
Thanks
hi yousaf... yes it does
Hi Allan,
I am thinking about replacing the chain only because I got 400k kilometers on clock so I got timing belt kit with water pump of SKF and now looking for chains, do you recommend replacing also the tensioners for the chain? Or only the chain? I do not what to spend a fortune for this car anymore... Chain is 30euros and tensioners around 70euros if this is a life time thing, may be this could still be good? What is your thoughts?
Thanks for making all these videos loving them and it's a good giggle while repairing my mondeo all the time using your guides and a pint of "improvisation" if you know what I mean haha.
Cheers!
if you were to replace the chain i would say definitely replace the tensioner as well.
if your engine has had regular oil changes there is a good chance the chain is ok and does not need replacing at your mileage...we have these engines with far more miles and never replaced a chain.....usually if there is a problem with the chain or tensioner you will hear a noise from the chain area
DW10FUD cylinder head bolt torque settings please?
Hi alan, great video! Looks a big job. Ex taxi's, would you say the majority of them have had this chain replaced when the cambelt is replaced? If oil changes are correct and on time, would one EVER need to replace this chain?
liam smith Hi. These chains fail due to lack of oil changes. I have found that if the oil changes are done regular when they should the chain will last the life of the engine no problem.
@@alan4x ahh I see ... well the galaxy I recently got has 282k on the clock ... ex taxi and history shows it was doing approximately 60k a year. Im sure I can hear the chain, just shy of the cambelt cover .. almost like a bearing sound. I presume it's the tensioner. Can it be replaced with the engine in? It's a shame as just before I brought it, it had a new cambelt and water pump.
Did you change the chain or is the sound normal @liamsmith7398
Is this engine used by others from the PSA group? And can you give me some advice about this engine?
Hi Alan, great video. I have a 2010 103kw TDCI Mondeo with aisin automatic. There is a rattling noise at low RPM (under 1800 while driving, but ok at idle), I was suspecting the transmission (converter lockup engaging around 1800 rpm ?... or something like that…) but after seeing this video, could it be the chain? The car has 250 000km {155 000miles}, first owner has lost the maintenance records :( I am not sure about belt + chain. Thanks for your advice.
you would need to put your ear near the chain area to see if the noise is there as unfortunately you can't get to the chain to see if its loose without removing the cover
Just bought mk4 mondog. 2 litre qxba... Aparently just wouldn't start one day.. On further inspection I think previous owner broke something... Timing belt looks new. But found a broken drill bit camshaft pin size??? Might have tried tow starting it... Would you say rockers or valves..
those engines are designed to break the rockers right in the middle...never had a bent valve yet
@@alan4x well I gave 300 for it so guess I should check... Just hoping it survived doesn't seem any compression, but guess if valves are shut it cant get air in
Hi Alan british accent, this wet belt made by Dayco?
Is 2013 coñnect a chain
Hi Alan, I was wondering whether you could comment on an observation I made yesterday.
I have this exact D4204T lump in my 2005 Volvo S40 2.0D, 150,000 miles and has been trouble free for the last 12years since I've owned it, but during oil changes I've manged to strip the sump plug many times .. gone up gradually from M14 to M17 in size, but it always kept dripping and making a mess on the undertray, so I decided to replace the whole sump..
So I took it off yesterday, and while I was at it, I had an "investigative" look around and noticed that the chain driving the oil pump had slack, I could push in the middle section with my finger about 3 cm, I couldn't pull it of the oil pump sprocket but it was really close.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe both the chain has stretched, and the oil pump sprocket is wearing out, surely no drive chain should have so much slack in it?
But my main Q is: if I were to feel adventurous, how big of a PITA is it to replace the oil pump and chain on the Jonah engine? I can see, that the chain is driven off the crankshaft, so does that mean that it will be a total engine tear down?
I would look it up in VIDA but my cracked licence seems to have been provoked 🤫 .. haven't needed it for a long time and now I just can't log in 😑
hi .. those oil pump chains are very slack, i know it don't make sense but they are all slack as there is no tensioner. if you did want to change it you would need to remove the sandwich section bolted to the bottom of the engine block
@@alan4x Thank you very much Alan, much appreciated! .. Since it's ment to be that way then I guess I'll leave it as it is then, no point in dropping the oil sump a second time and splitting the engine from below for no reason.
Keep up the good work, and keep those videos coming! 😊👍
Hey Alan (or anyone else that might know)
Is it possible to replace just the tensioner without going to the sheer effort required to replace the chain too?
The chains rarely stretch beyond spec being so short, and the issues are usually related to the tensioner and guides. If possible, I'd like to just slip out the old tensioner and replace it with a new one, which should take an hour or two instead of 10!
yes on the 2l Diesel engine in the video which is a 2007 engine you have to remove the plastic rocker cover then you can replace the tensioner without removing the chain
@alan4x Legend, thanks Alan! Mine's a 2008 and looks pretty similar. I'm hoping this will remedy the rattle I get for a couple of seconds on start up. I'm assuming I can get away with ignoring the Nylon guide under the chain for now if I can't get to it haha
you might be able to remove it with long nose pliers but if not and it looks good then leave it
@alan4x Appreciate your advice mate
Hi Allan, I am replacing the camshaft oil seal when I replace my timing belt. The question is, is the camshaft carrier need to be removed to replace the camshaft oil seal?
no u can dig it out with a screwdriver and then use the old one to help tap the new one on use some oil 2
The other way is to drill a small hole in it, and put a screw in it, then pull out using the screw. Much less chance of damaging the seal surface on the camshaft (my last job for this was Peugeot ES9A V6...so 4 cam seals :-)
Great Alan! I think the 18,000 mile change interval is too long, and I try and change oil between 10,000 and 12,000 miles. Ours is at 35,000 now so I hope never to do the timing chain. Thanks for that.
i change my oil every 3000 miles
Me to but I go it at 80k and always wonder what previous owners did ? I am up to 160k and only major expenses has been a new dpf ( of course tyres brake pads cam belt water pump some new discs on front are done but they are required by mileage) I do hear a rattle at certain loads but sounds more like valve gear?@@casparharte
Hi Alan! On those engines, if I reuse the hydraulic lifters or put new ones, is it not necessary to purge them? Is not easy to put rocker cover back on with no oil in lifters?
if you use the original lifters or fit new ones you can just fit them out of the box..no need to fill them with oil but obviously oil your camshaft journals before refitting the cover
@@alan4x i know that is no need to fill them, because they already have oil. But i think is much easier if i drain oil from them and than put the cover back on.
Hello, can someone give me the number of this red injector seal.
The car won't go to scrapyard before the chain wears out. Lifetime of that chain is around 250 000 to 300 000 kilometers and many cars drive more than that. Mine chain needs replacing at 280 000 kilometers because it became very loud
Makes the 1.8 tdci timing chain / belt seem quite reasonable >
That the KKDA Engine with wet belt lol?
Mr. Howatt. i have guestion, i have this same engine in my mondeo. I checked the servicebook and it has been used Castrol 5W-30 engine oil. I chanced engine oil and put Mobil 1 3000 5W-40 instead 5W-30 because the oil change time was prolonged and that was only oil i have my garage that time. So thinked i drive max 1500miles and do engine flush and put that same Castrol oil what it is been used. My guestion is, is this kinda thing save?
Mobil 1 5W40 is perfectly fine in these engines
Hi Alan. I see you took off the inlet manifold. Was it clogged? On the mk3 it was an easy job to remove, and cleaning it brought any lost performance back. These look difficult to remove.... is it still advisable t necessary to take off and clean? Cheers
hi, this engine is a dud so i took the manifold off to fit onto the new engine....i have had no coarse to remove these manifolds for any other reason and this one was not clogged like the mk3s were. i would not bother taking them off to clean
@@alan4x Thanks Alan appreciate you replying. I guess most of your fleet are now mk5s. However as most of us public who are likely to watch your videos are poor mk4 owners, I think more mk4 videos whilst you are still work on them would be more appreciated. Cheers for your straight talking guidance and humour!
@@alan4x the reason why I was considering cleaning manifold etc was because my 140hp mk4 just doesn't have that urgency and grunt my mk3 130hp did. Any other suggestions why this might be?
Super sir india
Same deal as the 1.5 and 1.6TDCI engines which also suffer chain wear
Hi Alan, I own a 308 2010 Peugeot and the exhaust was coming through the intake however after watching your video I got it running properly...now there is a lot of smoke coming from the back...Is that normal?...What should I do?
Sounds like you did the timing wrong somewhere
Thanks for the video! I was offered a Ford Mondeo Mk4 2l Diesel with timing belt. Is the chain system better?
Alan, I've got a problem with a Mondeo 2.0 tdci 2012 losing fuel pressure over night and having problems starting.
Once the car starts and runs it's happy until the next morning then no fuel pressure again 😕
had a few of them where the diesel injector leak off pipes leak air into the injectors overnight and cause poor or not starting at all until the fuel is bled....replaced the leak off pipes and has cured the problem
@@alan4x Hi ,
I really appreciate your help on that Alan! I'll replace the leak off pipe this week 🙏..... Your a legend 👍
Just an update Alan ...... Injector leak off pipes have been replaced and....... Drum roll........ You've fixed it mate! Thanks so so much it's had my head done in 😂
@@ryanmccormick2150 excellant..really glad that fixed your car
@@alan4x 👍
Hey. First question. Is there a seal under the suction manifold or only O-rings? Second question. Is there a gasket under the valve cover? Thank you for your answer.
hi, yes there is a rubber gasket under the suction manifold and under the camshaft cover there is one strip gasket in the centre where the injectors sit and the rest of the cover is just sealant
@@alan4x Thanks. One more question. What are the tightening torques for the intake manifold and valve cover?
Hi Alan , just to let you know love you channel mate ,I’ve got a quick question to ask you it’s regarding a mk5 ford mondeo obviously 😅2l tdci duratorq 148hp it’s done 174k just recently bought it and I was wondering how much slack is ok in the timing chain because I’ve opened the oil cap and I can slightly move the chain with a small screwdriver not much problem about half of a inch I can’t hear any noise from the chain and it sound and drives ok is it something I should be worried about…thanks
a lot will depend on whether the engine has had the correct oil changes at the right times but the chain guide wears and eventually breaks up causing a noisy chain. I recommend replacing that chain and guide at 200k miles but could go longer ..just keep an ear out for any chain noise...if the chain were to become loose you will hear it
@@alan4x thanks for the advice 👍
Hi Alan could you tell me when should i change timing belt mondeo mk4 2,0 tdci dw10c 8 years old and 107 000 kilometers
hi, should change belt at 125,000 miles or ten years
thank you very much greetings from Poland@@alan4x
Can you suggest a cheap, suitable, oil please kind sir? Cheers from Australia and thanks for the videos 👍🏻
hi, i don't know what they sell in australia but i sure aftermarket part dealers will have a variety of reasonably priced oils that will be on spec for your car
thats interesting.... so many oils it can make your head spin
supercheap have 2 types of oils recommended for Mondeo tdci. Penrite and Nulon around $65 aussie dollars
Use the nulon VW spec stuff
Isn't that chain supposed to be lifetime of the engine. What milage should they be replaced
Does anybody know if 2.0tdci mk4 facelift (TXBA engine -163bhp) has a gasket between the camshaft carrier and the cylinder head?
no it is sealant
i have ford s max 2L TDCI 2011 . The engine is same like 2014 MONDEO mk4 2l Diesel.
Hi Alan.
I know timing interval is 125000 miles or 10 years. Mine is getting close to the milage, so I'll have to do it soon. Would an oem Ford kit and water pump be the best? I don't care about the price for this kind of parts, just want the best possible. Thanks
aftermarket kits made by +gates+ are good and cheaper but if you want total peace of mind the ford kits are very good quality
@@alan4x I can get a very close price to Gates on a Ford one, so I guess it's worth the extra bit. Used Gates to on other cars without issues. But on the Ford kit description on the website, it says change interval 90.000km or 5 years. I guess it's a typo, or is the 200.000km/10 year only for the factory one?
Alan can I ask a question on the 1.6 diesel is it what they call a non interference engine ?????...
Tbh pretty much every modern engine is an interference engine, some are designed to break rockers instead of the valves but it's pretty rate that nothing at all will be damaged from a belt or chain failure
I think the 1.6 has valve tappers that break rather than bending the valves in case of snapped belt. But I'm not sure. And it is still an expensive fit
Hello!
Changing this chain should also change gear?
if you mean the gears the chain runs on then no as long as the teeth are not badly worn
@@alan4x Thanks.
I am interested wher can i add a manometer, to see oil pressure.
Hi Alan is it the same mark alignment on a Galaxy 2007 2.0 tdci,(qxwb) ? i could not find any differentcolored links on the chain. And something is not ok.
you don't need to see the yellow marks..just line the dots on the sprockets with the discoloured links on the chain...you may have to spray de greaser on the chain to see the two discoloured links
@@alan4x I may need an new chain if i cant find the links. What is sylinder one on this engine? timingbelt end or flywheel end. I need to check if a sprocket has twisted on one of the camshafts. Whant happened is : Timingbelt lost some teeths, all 16 rockers brake off. But the valve shafts looks in line and have the exact same heigth , so i doubt they are bended /broken.

Hi no1 cylinder is at the clutch end and no4 is at timing belt side
@@alan4x Thank you :) if not have to buy new chain.
Now the engine started, the valves survived breaking all 16 rockers. But it is almost no turbo boost, about 0,2 bar at most. The turbo was no good in the first place, been a lot of limp mode, overboost. But now something is wrong...
allan i need help and you are expert,i have ford mondeo 2,0 diesel,140ps 2010 year. 240 000 miles,the engine lamp always is on, the defect is low soot filtering, black smoke is always coming, I was replacing dpf and some kind of sensor in the ford service but again the same,this mechanic in germany sucks lol
hi, you really need your ecu read for codes first to point you in the right direction
Looking to buy a Mondeo Mk4 2.2 12plate, with a noisy timing chain. Would it snap if I don't have it changed immediately? What's the labour cost mate?
it will be expensive to replace the chain and quite labour intensive... i would avoid unless the car is very cheap to buy
@@alan4x Oh boy, think I'll avoid this one then!! Thanks for the reply Alan.
This had engine code D4204T of i'm not wrong ?
This engine is used in more Cars than Just Ford / Citroën & Peugeot. Volvo also had this engine. Probably more Cars have Them.
Awesome channel. I've got a strange problem on one of these - reassembling a 2009 Mondeo mk4 2.0 tdci after a timing belt failure and broken rockers. If I line the marks on the chain up as shown, I get BOTH inlet and exhaust valves opening at the same time. Really. The exhaust valve is in the correct place, but the inlet is miles out. Have you ever seen the chain sprocket spin on the camshaft? It seems tight now. I'm 110% sure the timing marks are correct and I've been sent for a drugs test :-) - Its hard to get a clear pic but it looks like my sprocket is timed differently to this one. Anyone seen this happen before?? Or can give me a pic of the inlet cam timing dot vs lobe position? Thanks heaps!!
if those chain sprockets are pressed onto the camshafts it is possible they could move..what were the symptoms of why did the cam belt fail....i have had the dog drive on the rear of the exhaust cam turn on the camshaft because the high pressure fuel pump locked/seized momentarily and caused it to.
i have an engine with the cams and sprocket exposed so i can take a pic of the cam positions for you with the chain set up but i not at work till the new year
Thanks very much for your reply. The car has done 195km on the original belt and it is VERY worn, so I had assumed it was simply fair wear and tear and I wasn't suspicious of something seizing to cause it. The vac and hp fuel pump seem ok but not confirmed when running of course.... I've added 4x short videos of the timing and lobe positions - if you have a chance to compare with your engine once you're back in the shop and comment I'd be very grateful. Cheers!
I don't understand is this engine using a timing chain or a timing belt? ? It is generally said that the timing chain does not need to be replaced, but the timing belt needs to be replaced regularly.
It's a main belt driving the exhaust camshaft off the crankshaft. The inlet camshaft is driven by a chain linked to the exhaust camshaft.
When the chain and tensioner wear, you get a rattling noise from the engine.
Been told its a timing belt on my 2014 ford mondeo 2.0tdci?
you have a timing belt from your crankshaft to your exhaust camshaft...then a chain joining the exhaust camshaft to the inlet camshaft
Is it the same with the Mondeo mk5 2.0l. 180 ps.?????
I've gone 75,000 miles, and the engine is getting noisier
the mk5 2litre engine does have a similar chain setup
@@alan4x thanks
My car has a noise from that chain .... fuck.. i cant hear it from outside but easily hear it when listening with the hood open. Do they get really loud ? And also very important , I dont need to get the engine off the car right?
Does a 2011 2.0 have a belt or a chain? :S

Hi. Yes it will have a chain in the cylinder head.
Your injectors and manifold will be different but the chain will be the same

As long as we are talking about a 2 litre Peugeot Diesel engine

Tomorow my V50 2.0D (which had PSA d4204t engine) sounded like this after a cold start drove for like a 100metres. Then IT was idling for about a minute. After that while standing stil i revved IT to about 2000rpm . This sound was taken front outside the car.
Goes up/faster when revving up, and gets slower/quetter when letting of the pedal.
Hei, i got 0il lesning from throtle body and i dont know what to do.
Funny thing is that there is a similar chain at the bottom end of the engine that runs the oil pump and it hasnt got a tensioner and guess what it will be worn out as well yupi! If that engine was not serviced properly the best thing you can do is to scrap it.
Ive done that chain in my car and it didnt make much of a difference, and the other chain is noisy as well, so be wise and do as Alan said dont buy a car with noisy chain.
My car had full ford service history and 90k miles and yet fuel filter was 5 yrs old, so either ford garage is crap or my service book is fake, so even a car with fsh can have that issue.
I personaly think that ford dealerships are charging people for service and all they do is change the oil with cheapest possible crapy one and dont change any other filters to save money as its not possible for that chain to stretch that much if the oil was changed with quality oils and filters.
Im just waiting for my engine to die now and after that i will look for replacement low milage engine as ive spet a lot of money on my car and i cant afford to lose it.
Be safe and dont buy them crapy fords!
i have had two of those oil pumps crack and seize the engines up in peugeot expert vans and yeah the chain just hangs on the oil pump
alan howatt did they crack becouse the chain was loose?
hi, you lost me... what cracked? the chain on this engine was perfectly fine.... i just used this engine to show where the chain is and how it is timed
alan howatt ohh ok I get it now
Must I use new screw to valve cover? I have problem, damage 2 screw or 10nm is to much?
Hi Alan, I got ford mondeo 2012. Do we need special tools for ford models or normal tools would work on it. Thanks
most cases normal tools will do
this the same way u time 2.2tdci engine
