Frequently asked questions

What is the Timing Chain Guide used for?
The Timing Chain Guide controls the path of the primary timing chain on the 2.2L (Puma) diesel engine. It bears against the chain between the crankshaft and camshaft sprockets to stop it whipping and to keep timing stable. It fits the Defender 2007-2016 with the 2.2L diesel.
What are the signs the chain guide is worn?
A worn timing chain guide typically lets the chain slap, giving a rattle from the timing end, and can shed material that blocks oil passages. On the 2.2 Puma diesel it's usually renewed together with the chain and tensioner, since they wear as a set.
Is there an alternative part number for this guide?
This guide also cross-references to LR031384. If that number shows on your old part or in a catalogue, it's the same primary timing chain guide for the 2.2L Puma diesel Defender. It's common to replace the full timing chain kit at once.
