Timing Chain Guide - LH Primary - a fixed guide in the timing drive assembly of the 2.0L four-cylinder Ingenium petrol engine (AJ200 / AJ20P4), including plug-in hybrid applications.

The guide runs along the left-hand side of the primary chain, controlling the chain path between the crankshaft sprocket and the camshaft drive and damping the whip that would otherwise develop across the free span.

Its low-friction facing is a wearing surface. As the facing wears the chain gains slack, which the tensioner takes up until its travel is exhausted, giving chain rattle on start-up and, if left, timing error. Guides are normally renewed together with the chain and tensioner whenever the timing drive is disturbed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the LH primary timing chain guide do?
The LH primary timing chain guide controls the path of the primary timing chain and keeps it correctly located on the 2.0L four-cylinder petrol engine (AJ200/AJ20P4). This Genuine Land Rover guide fits models like the Discovery 5, New Defender, Range Rover L405 and Range Rover Sport L494.
Where is the primary timing chain guide located?
The LH primary timing chain guide sits behind the front timing cover on the 2.0L petrol engine, running alongside the primary chain. Access requires removing the timing cover, so it is usually replaced during timing chain service.
What are the signs of a worn timing chain guide?
Signs of a worn timing chain guide include a rattling noise on start-up or at idle, timing-related fault codes, and chain noise from the front of the engine. A cracked or worn LH primary guide on the 2.0L petrol engine should be replaced with the chain.
