Wow! Respect to you for tackling a difficult job with limited space, tools and outside. Great watching! I have a 2014 Swift Sport and hope I never have to do this!
Had to be done and for one long cold day i saved a lot of cash and i know all bolts are back in, torqued and sealed. Plus i know the engine pretty well and only spent £150 on everything in the video. Job done well :)
I had the same symptoms, i persisted with it for a couple of weeks just using it for small trips and in the end i could get 5 mile per gallon of coolant :D
I done this once, getting the water pump pulley off and the timing cover was easily the worst bits haha. Never again would I do a head gasket without taking the engine out. Had the best feeling when it all was back together and working though! Well done man.
Loosening the nuts while the belt is on helps and a power ratchet would have been ideal, i think i used the bar i made to remove the crank pully to hold it still
Got to do headgasket on my recently purchased Swift and this video is super helpful. Don't suppose there's any chance you'd be able to upload the workshop manual somewhere if you've still got it?
the sprockets and crank and the chain all have alignment marks, when you get a new chain they usually tell you on the packaging and I have a copy of the work shop manual. the you have the chain on, turn the engine over a few times by hand to be sure you don't bend anything
Are you part of the suzuki swift sport owners club on Facebook? 😄 we all help each other out and there’s some suzuki mechanics on there too as well as suzuki specialists 😄
If you remove the valve cover you can see, the cam shaft at the back of the engine on the intake side will have a large cylinder/drum thing on the chain end and the other cam shaft doesnt. There are also two small metal pipes which control the vvt near it, i would assume they wont be there on a non vvt engine.
Great job!! I have problem with my suzuki sx4 m16a engine. I guess the head gasket blown since bubles constantly show up at the radiator and overflow coolant in the resevoir/expansion tank. Also, the temperature gauge rise if i drive fast. Do i need to skim the block/ head before replace with the new gasket? Pls help. Tq vry much in advance.
I didnt skim the block or the head when i replaced my head gasket. I did check it with a straight edge ruler and it appeared fine. I had those same symptoms so i would say for definite your headgasket needs replacing. I have the suzuki workshop manual pdf for the swift with the m16a engine if you need it. The engine block should be the same but there will be some differences such as the aluminium intake on the sport. Since the timing chain needs to come off it would be smart to swap that whilst your in there. Its not a difficult job, just lots of little bits but if you keep it clean and organized youll be fine. Film it and you can watch it back if your unsure of something youve done.
Didnt check it really, was told it was replaced before i got it but nothing to prove the chain was replaced so i did it while i was the for the headgasket, thanks
Hi Joshua my Suzuki m16a 2007 ZC3IS is blowing water from the reserve water tank what could be the problem my radiator cap is fine the water is rusty too,temperature only went up once but i am always topping up water pliz help
Question for ya, if you're still up for answering them five years on making this vid! I'm struggling with removing the two top bolts that hold the AC compressor onto it's mounting plate, since the AC lines are directly in the way making removal appear impossible, yet you managed to do it. Did you remove the AC lines and vent the gas to atmosphere or is there some other trick?
@@joshb1434I have all of the easy bolts out. Looking down on the pump from the top, the left bolt is ‘captivated’ by one of the lines if you don’t remove it first.

How long can last a suzuki swift engine sport version 2012 and how often do u change the timing chain or when do u change the timing chain for first time in which milage?thank you
I know this is a old video but I used this video to do my partners car and will be using it to put it back together we are ordering all the parts only thing we are struggling on is what size head bolts to get do you remember what size you went for? Was options of 118mm 120mm 129mm measured them and they are almost 129 but assuming that’s because they stretched? Hope you can remember I know it’s been a while haha

Hi I've watched your video more than ten times. May I know did you fully remove the oil pan or just unscrew the necessary oil pan screws under the engine. According to manual told me I have to remove it to get access the timing chain cover. Thank you!!
Hey. I've a 07 sport with the same problem. You didn't happen to do a compression test by any chance? I did on mine and it was 155 psi across the 4 cylinders. I'm not sure what it's supposed to be?
I didnt do a compression test, but all 4 being the same is good and it could still be a head gasket leak but only when the fuel mix ignites. I will upload the workshop manuals soon
Great video but a shame there is a load missing for the timing chain removal and refitting, chain cover resealing and refitting etc. Did you have to remove the sump pan? Can I ask where you identified the part numbers? Thanks
Probably the most critical part of the job, skipped over. One assumes there are markers on the crank pulley for TDC that needs to align with a casting marker? How are the cam shafts refitted, rotated to the correct position? Off I go hunting more Swift head gasket vids for those deets...
hi I have the same car with bubbles but I have made gases test and was neg. I do not have any other problems do you think that the car is for head gasket repl or ,,, the car is cooling just fine 92 98 cel
Thanks for the video. If I want to change the timing chain only, have I to remove the camhead cover? I suppose yes... Is such motor M16A the same installed on Fiat Sedici and Suzuki SX4 ? thanks
Same engine other than some components like intake manifold but internals are the same, the cam cover needs to be removed but the cylinder head doesnt need to be removed
How is your engine. Did everything seal up ok.? Got this job planned. Would normally get head checked skimmed and would worry with open deck block. I suspect combustion into water.
Runs perfect ive put 8000+ miles on it since the rebuild, no leaks no problems and i drive it aggressively everyday, didnt have the head checked or skimmed just looked over it myself, i would advise on a copy of the rs416 manual because you need rtv in places including the gaskets and changes the oil a couple times after the rebuild if you putting in new parts
Thanks. It is as M15a but essentially the same construction. The car is standing at the moment, will be removing in the future but have bought a whole new identical car for the interim.
Its not difficult, its just long but i got it done in a day. Keep the engine clean, bag and tag nuts and bolts, torque bolts to spec and take pics of parts before you remove them and a little research for piece of mind and itll go back together in no time with no problems

I came here to see head surface cus i have external oil leak from head gasket under the exhaust manifold. I swear im never buying another suzuki again. This is my 4th and will be my last. Nothing but problems.
I noticed i had a bit of an oil leak where your describing. Turned out a few of my manifold bolts were loose and it was coming from there. Suzuki's are bullet proof aslong as you check and change the fluids at the proper intervals. I have a couple and i dont have any unexpected issues
@@joshb1434 cheer mate i will check again closely. But unfornutley its a difference experience for me and my sister, not one of my suzuki as even come close to being as reliable as my first car i had which is a fiat punto 1.2 16v with high mileage aswell. To be fair the suzuki has started up and i have had my current suzuki nearly 4 years. But im getting issue's. Clutch folks on gearbox snapped and left me stranded, the thermostat needed replacing due to overheating but coolant sysem never been the same since i changed it 2 years ago. Rear brake drums cracked. Slight Tapping noise now coming from engine. Its getting more and more harder to engage 1st gear and sometimes 2nd. This is my 4th suzuki and i would rathet mention my last 3 or as they get me mad thinking them 😂.
@@joshb1434 first swift was an 04 i think and was a 1.3vvt petrol. And 2nd one was a 05 1.5 petrol. My current is a liana estate 1.6 non vvt petrol, i am going to part ex on tuesday for an honda civic. Will miss the car but not the problems 😂. My sister has suzuki splash 1.2 and with only 51k miles needs a new gearbox and rear wiper motor so she trading hers after christmas.
@@leethatsme1988 never heard anybody have so many odd issues. In 4 years i put a clutch in my 1.5 (original lasted 92k) and did the head gasket and timing chain on my 1.6 at about 135k chain was good but i was already there

No. You need the timing chain off to get the cam shafts out to remove the head

Do you have a dimensions of pulley puller? I am out of home but would like to fabricate one for me in workshop.
I used the pully as a template whilst still on the car so i never used a measurement. Mine wasnt that tight either, i could have probably pulled it off by hand
@@joshb1434 thanks for your reply. Removing oil pan is required if I want just to change the chain? If you remove engine cushion you must support the engine from the bottom?
I didn't remove the oil pan, i supported the engine from underneath the oil pan and removed the engine mount and timing cover as i changed the chain, guides and tensioner aswel as the head gasket
@@joshb1434 Thank you!
@@MrCopRobo no problem!
Owner's manual link dead :'(
👍bro
hey bro how you remove the cap that is in the middle of the cover chain!?
Wind an m6 bolt into it and grab that with some pliers or something and pull it out
@@joshb1434 i had tried with long lever and it doesnt come out that fucker:(
@@rubenbasabe6612 theres a couple bolts if i remember correctly holding it on too have you removed them too?
It will be in there tight and needs to come out pretty straight too
@@joshb1434 yes i took those out
Have you still got your swift
No, i sold it a few months ago as i needed a family car
@@joshb1434 fair play where did you purchase your parts for swift head gasket etc
@@zc31s56 got the head gasket and head bolts from local shop (bms) timing kit was a dayco set off ebay, ebay should have the lot but any shop will be able to get you the bits just spend a little extra to get brands you know and trust
@@joshb1434 cheers buddie am In the process of just replacing every bloody part but its costly 😆
Its a sharp surface 😂😂
The music put me off.
Did you renew all the bolts and chain?
Yes new head studs and new chain and sprockets, would be a good idea to do the shims while your in there too
pretty good, if you mute the music
I'm not a fan of talking. I feel like I'm simply stating the obvious :D
Just revisited video. It's really a good job on the video AND the car! I picked up more info second time around. Tomorrow I may be doing this to my car actually.😳
Thanks for the help.☺
te dejo un video de un suzuki k12

I came here to see head surface cus i have external oil leak from head gasket under the exhaust manifold. I swear im never buying another suzuki again. This is my 4th and will be my last. Nothing but problems.
I noticed i had a bit of an oil leak where your describing. Turned out a few of my manifold bolts were loose and it was coming from there. Suzuki's are bullet proof aslong as you check and change the fluids at the proper intervals. I have a couple and i dont have any unexpected issues
@@joshb1434 cheer mate i will check again closely. But unfornutley its a difference experience for me and my sister, not one of my suzuki as even come close to being as reliable as my first car i had which is a fiat punto 1.2 16v with high mileage aswell. To be fair the suzuki has started up and i have had my current suzuki nearly 4 years. But im getting issue's. Clutch folks on gearbox snapped and left me stranded, the thermostat needed replacing due to overheating but coolant sysem never been the same since i changed it 2 years ago. Rear brake drums cracked. Slight Tapping noise now coming from engine. Its getting more and more harder to engage 1st gear and sometimes 2nd. This is my 4th suzuki and i would rathet mention my last 3 or as they get me mad thinking them 😂.
@@leethatsme1988 what engines have you had in the swifts?
@@joshb1434 first swift was an 04 i think and was a 1.3vvt petrol. And 2nd one was a 05 1.5 petrol. My current is a liana estate 1.6 non vvt petrol, i am going to part ex on tuesday for an honda civic. Will miss the car but not the problems 😂. My sister has suzuki splash 1.2 and with only 51k miles needs a new gearbox and rear wiper motor so she trading hers after christmas.
@@leethatsme1988 never heard anybody have so many odd issues. In 4 years i put a clutch in my 1.5 (original lasted 92k) and did the head gasket and timing chain on my 1.6 at about 135k chain was good but i was already there
Jesus bro can’t see anything your going to fast
