2017 Nissan Pathfinder timing chain
Posted to Technical Discussion Forum on 5/3/2024 10 Replies

First time posting here.

Replacing timing chains, guides, tensioners, etc. on this engine. Been very difficult as Alldata timing chain marks info is vague at best. Found a decent video on Cloyes.com.

Question: All back together, turned engine over a few times to make sure it is ok. However, when turning over, the bank one intake VVT cam sprocket will wind and unwind when turning. Bank two intake VVT cam sprocket moves also, just not as much. There's no oil pressure to command movement, so just wondering if anyone knows this is normal before I proceed.
