  • @2000globetrotter

    It's puzzling that Land Rover didn't fit the cam bolts with locking washers to prevent them coming undone. I'm a retired mechenic and I've rarely, if ever, seen a cam end bolt fitted without some kind of locking device. A tab washer, serrated locking washer, or some other device. This is shockingly bad engineering!

    • @joe2mercs
      @joe2mercs Рік тому

      The cam sprocket is rotated counter clockwise and therefore risks undoing the retaining bolt with its right hand thread. Once the drive chain from the crank wears it provides continuous ‘kicks’ via the intermediate sprocket to the top timing chain that acts to loosen the bolt and snap the location dowel on the cam sprocket. The only sure way to have circumvented this would have been to use a retaining bolt with left hand thread and a woodruff key between cam and sprocket, basically common sense engineering.

  • @ciderandy4290
    @ciderandy4290 Рік тому +4

    Not having any experience of these engines, I reckon your diagnosis is spot on. The bolt should hold the sprocket against the camshaft, the bolt's come loose, transferring the load to the locating pin which has then sheared. The camshaft has then stopped turning but as the engine is cranked one piston is striking the open inlet valves which push the cam lobes out of the way. Another piston then strikes its inlet valves and they push the cam lobes, rotating the camshaft out of the way. I suspect either pistons 1 & 4 or pistons 2 & 3 are 'rocking' the camshaft backwards and forwards, through a relatively narrow arc and this is the rattle you're hearing under cranking. If you're lucky, it won't have bent any valves (or done any real damage to the piston crowns). So I agree, once it's properly reassembled you might well have a running, undamaged engine. At worst I reckon it could only need a couple of new valves. Good luck!

    That sprocket bolt is probably going to need a good tightening up? A bit like the crank pulley on my 1.8 tdci Mondeo, no woodruff key, just 100nm then a 180 turn, otherwise known as "Kin Tight"!

    Action: The issue has been fixed in production at the following VINs:
    • Freelander 2 / LR2 - 375956
    • Evoque - 840665
    A new part number is available: LR050849. These parts have a new pin material and machining changes to the camshaft sprocket body.

    Land Rover, like Rover before them to be fair, make a great product, it's just the quality control is terrible. I was once talking to an auto electrician who worked full time at JLR snagging cars. The main fault he dealt with was self tappers through wiring looms. So yeah, that loose bolt doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

  • @michaelgoode9555
    @michaelgoode9555 Рік тому +1

    Totally agree with service intervals. It used to be so many thousand miles or so many months whichever came first. I apprenticed in a small workshop like yours and loved the regular trade of servicing anything from Austin A30's and Ford Anglia's to XJ6's and various eras of Rover 3.5 v8's. Should have stayed in the trade but programming computers was incredibly exciting and lucrative in the early eighties.

    Loved the video. As an LR owner, I'm always interested in the inner workings of these beasts. I have an LR2 2008, and our mechanic here, who only does Land Rovers, tells me he's never replaced the Volvo engine inner car model, and that they go for about 400K. Not so with the other versions, including the Ingenium, apparently.

    I know a fella who has done more that 10 of these and the main problem is the upper timing chains stretches and puts the cam out of sync leading to your problem

    My brother owned an Austin Metro over 30 years ago and it was a very problematic vehicle, it broke down a lot and parts were very expensive. British vehicles have a bad reputation not always deserved, I know a happy owner of a 2012 Land Rover Freelander and he is delighted with it, you should not always get carried away by the reputation of a manufacturer, I also know another owner of an Audi A5 who had countless problems with the car just bought at an official dealer, I think it's a matter of good or bad luck. Greetings from Spain, thanks for entertaining us with your work, it's great.

    Just assume the cam lobes have moved, and stick a new camshaft in while it's apart?

    I wouldn’t put it back together completely. Time it up then compression test it. Give you an idea if you have any bent valves before you bolt it all together. Nice vid thanks for sharing 👍🏼
