Timing chain replacement instructions please?

Good morning,

This sounds like you need a timing chain. The marks are no longer aligned and that is why you have these codes and the timing showing that far off.

There is no adjustment for the timing chain. That is automatic with a tensioner.

You will need to replace the timing chain.

Bbn o. It does not.

50 degrees is way too much. Did you check the timing marks.

You can try but it will not change the difference in timing.

That is mechanical. That is when the cam and crank sensor signals are out of sync.

You need to pull the front cover. The scan tool will not help you with checking the marks. You need to see them for yourself.
