Frequently asked questions

What does the Upper Timing Chain do?
The Upper Timing Chain is the upper section of the timing drive on the AJV8 petrol engine, carrying drive from the crankshaft sprocket to the camshaft sprockets to keep valve timing correct. It runs inside the timing case, guided and tensioned by the chain tensioner and guides.
Which engines and models use this upper timing chain?
This upper timing chain fits the petrol 4.4 AJV8 and 4.2 V8 Supercharged engines in the Discovery 3 (2005-2009), Range Rover L322 (2002-2009, 4.4 from VIN 6A000001) and Range Rover Sport L320 (2005-2013). Confirm your engine, as diesel and petrol timing parts differ.
Should other timing parts be replaced with the chain?
When replacing the upper timing chain on the AJV8, the chain tensioners and guides are typically renewed at the same time, as they wear together and the timing case has to be opened either way. This helps avoid a repeat strip-down soon after.
What are the symptoms of a worn timing chain?
A stretched or worn timing chain on the AJV8 typically causes a rattle from the front of the engine, especially on cold start, and can set camshaft timing fault codes. Left unchecked, chain wear risks the valve timing slipping, so a noisy chain should be investigated promptly.
