Frequently asked questions

What does the Balance Shaft Timing Chain Tensioner do?
The Balance Shaft Timing Chain Tensioner keeps tension on the balance shaft drive chain of the 4.0 V6 Cologne SOHC petrol engine, taking up slack to keep the balance shaft correctly phased. It applies a controlled load and damps chain movement to cut noise and vibration.
Which Discovery models does this balance shaft tensioner fit?
This tensioner fits the 4.0 V6 Cologne SOHC petrol engine in the Discovery 3 (2005-2009, to VIN 9A999999) and Discovery 4 (2010-2016, from VIN AA000001). Use your chassis number to confirm which side of the Discovery 3/4 VIN break your vehicle falls on.
Is this the same as the main timing chain tensioner?
This is the balance shaft chain tensioner, not the main camshaft timing chain tensioner. The 4.0 V6 Cologne engine has a separate balance shaft drive, so check you need the balance shaft tensioner rather than the primary timing tensioner before ordering.
What are the signs the balance shaft tensioner is worn?
A worn balance shaft tensioner on the 4.0 V6 typically shows as a rattle or drone from the lower engine, often worse when cold. Because it keeps the balance shaft chain taut, a failing tensioner lets the chain slap, so investigate a persistent noise promptly.
