Can you describe in writing how to go about removing the tensioner again? I am about to do a swap on my toyota camry 2012. It rattle when first start up and during driving (left, right, and straight while stepping on the gas peddle). I didnt fuller understand the warnings and tips and tricks you were explaining before removing the tensioner bc you didnt have it film.
Many thanks for this video, Usman! I'm just curious how did you manage to keep the chain guide out of the way while installing the tensioner and while the tensioner was out? As I'm afraid that keeping the chain guide loose could be risky and cause the chain to skip. Then I'd be in a world of pain!
@@Usmanthemecano Isn't there a strong push from the chain/chain guide towards the chain tensioner area once the tensioner is removed? It must be hard to push the guide away to its place in order to install the tensioner again?
Very good video, is there a certain amount of turning the crank like a 1/4 turn or a full turn or just enough to hear the pin released itself and we're good to go? Thanks
Thanks pal! And no. You can push the timing chain guide to allow tensioner plunger one more click to be sure you have enough tension upon startup. Also crank it for gas pedal to the floor to build up oil pressure. Do it for 10s at least twice.
@@Usmanthemecano I'm from the Houston area, lol. Small world. So this solved the rattling issue entirely? I ordered an OEM tensioner, but can't find the inspection port gasket anywhere to order. Crazy, lol. Thanks again.
@@Usmanthemecano you should change exhaust camshaft sprocket.. i have same issue and i fixed it. mine is p0016 and 15. for 13 camry. or someone put federal ECM in place of california. federal and california have different ecu and different cam sprocket.
Am having a similar fault code p0012 on 2011 Camry , I have changed engine oil with filter, timing is ok, vvt sensor is working perfect ,lectrical wires is ok , but still de code appear , I need help

That rattle isn't that tensioner. It's the cam phaser.
Nice job sir, also from dallas

It won't slip. No worries

But how did you take the tensioner out, never explained?
Thanks for the information pal
I change as you said, but after assembly I turned on the engine runs good but I got p0017 code
What was the reason why you changed it?
Very good video, is there a certain amount of turning the crank like a 1/4 turn or a full turn or just enough to hear the pin released itself and we're good to go? Thanks
You just watch the lever on the tensioner as you rotate crank counterclockwise. Once it lines up with the pin hole you stop
Did it rattle when it first started? And great vid!

I need help! I just replaced mine on a 2012 Camry and check engine came on!
Why did you replace it in the first place?
@@Usmanthemecano cold start rattle
That's usually the cam phaser and not the tensioner. Hope you didn't mess up the timing...
@@Usmanthemecano the light happened after I took for a spin. Everything was fine until the car idled and the light came on.
Let me guess p0018? P0017? P0016?
What happened that you are changing the adjuster?
Was chasing a p0016, p0017
@@Usmanthemecano ok
Did it solve the p0017 p0016?
No.
