Timing Chain Tensioner - Lower in the timing chain drive of the AJ-V8 petrol engine (4.4L and 4.2L supercharged).

It maintains correct tension on the lower timing chain, automatically taking up slack as the chain wears so the crankshaft-to-camshaft drive stays accurately timed and chain noise and wear are kept under control.

Frequently asked questions

What does the lower timing chain tensioner do?
The lower timing chain tensioner maintains tension on the lower timing chain in the AJ-V8 petrol engine. It automatically takes up slack as the chain wears, keeping the crankshaft-to-camshaft drive accurately timed and controlling chain noise. Fitted to the 4.4 AJ V8 petrol and 4.2 V8 supercharged engines.
Which models and engines use this lower timing chain tensioner?
This lower tensioner fits the 4.4 AJ V8 petrol and 4.2 V8 supercharged engines. Applications include the Discovery 3 (2005-2009), Range Rover Sport L320 (2005-2009), and Range Rover L322 from VIN 6A000001. It sits in the lower section of the timing chain drive.
What are the signs a timing chain tensioner is failing?
A rattle or chain noise from the front of the engine, especially on cold start, is a common sign the tensioner is no longer holding chain tension. On the AJ V8, worn timing chains and tensioners can eventually cause timing faults. Replace the tensioner once chain noise develops.
How do I confirm this tensioner fits my Range Rover L322?
On the Range Rover L322, this lower tensioner fits from VIN 6A000001 with the 4.4 AJ V8 petrol or 4.2 V8 supercharged engine. Earlier L322 models used a different engine and tensioner, so check your VIN and engine before ordering.
