BMW Mini Cooper S and PSA 1.6 16v Turbo 2007 onwards
BMW Mini and Peugeot have developed a pair of engines. The N14 ranges have been
developed to incorporate the latest technologies to give the best performance, economy
and emissions possible.
This kit has been designed to replace the timing chain on the N14 engines. These engines
are 1.6 Turbo charged petrol engines.
The tools have been specifically designed to allow the camshaft and crankshaft to be locked
in position to correctly check and set the camshaft timing.
NB: It may be necessary to use a pre-load tool on the chain tensioner which is not supplied
in the kit but is available separately – Part No 5153
Preparation
1. The valve timing on these engines
is not set with No1 piston at TDC
but with all the pistons in the
90˚ position. For this reason it is
recommended by the manufacturers
that the spark plugs be removed so
the pistons are checked and are at
the same height in the bores.
2. Where the crankshaft locking pin
slots into the flywheel there are also
balance slots in the flywheel which
the pin could slot into by mistake.
To ensure the tool is in the timing
hole, check the piston heights are
equal with the pin fitted.
3. Remove the cam cover to gain access
to the camshafts
4. Remove the front splash guard
(Mini only)
5. It is highly recommended that the
Vanos unit be checked and if found
faulty replaced (See Manufacturers
Workshop Manual)
