Frequently asked questions

What does the Timing Chain Tensioner do?
The Timing Chain Tensioner keeps the correct tension on the timing chain of the 4.4 AJV8 petrol engine, taking up slack as the chain wears so valve timing stays accurate. It applies a controlled load to the chain and damps oscillation to stop chain rattle.
Which models use this AJV8 timing chain tensioner?
This tensioner fits the 4.4 AJV8 petrol engine in the Land Rover Discovery 3 (2005-2009), Range Rover L322 (2002-2009) and Range Rover Sport L320 (2005-2009). It's specific to the petrol AJV8, so confirm your engine before ordering.
Should I replace the timing chain at the same time?
The timing chain is typically renewed alongside the tensioner on the AJV8, since a worn chain and a worn tensioner usually go together and the timing cover must come off either way. Fitting a new tensioner to a stretched chain often brings the rattle back.
What are the signs the timing chain tensioner has failed?
A failing tensioner on the 4.4 AJV8 typically lets the timing chain rattle, most noticeable on start-up before oil pressure builds. A slack chain can jump timing, so a persistent rattle from the timing case should be checked without delay.
