Product Information

Replaces all major components of your BMW's timing system

Timing chains are usually a lifetime component in most engines. However, due to several circumstances timing chains can stretch and guide rails can wear down to the point where these components will need to be replaced. This timing chain kit has been assembled in house to address the most common wear items of your timing system and will restore your BMW's M62TU engine back to factory condition.

You may also want to consider replacing the upper timing chains, BMW part number 11311747437, which drive the camshaft, these are rarely ever an issue but it could be worth your time to replace them while the engine is torn apart.

Engine Timing Chain Kit

An engine timing chain is a crucial component in an internal combustion engine that synchronizes the rotation of the crankshaft and camshafts. It ensures that the engine's valves open and close at the proper times during each cylinder's intake and exhaust strokes, maintaining optimal engine performance. Timing chains are typically made of metal and are designed to last for the life of the engine, though they can wear out or become damaged over time. Damaged or stretched chains can impact the timing on an engine and overwork the tensioner, failures in this system can cause catastrophic engine failure and costly repairs.

Engine Timing Chain Kit Failure Symptoms
  • Noise: A common symptom of a failing timing chain is a rattling or slapping noise coming from the engine, especially during startup or acceleration. This noise may be more pronounced at idle or startup
  • Poor Engine Performance: If the timing chain is stretched, it can lead to decreased power, acceleration problems, or sluggish performance

Wrenching metalshaper
In hindsight, the smaller cam to cam chains, P/N: 11311747437, should be part of the kit as the job is more time consuming than difficult. You have the whole front open and replacing all these "consumables", so might as well do these. In addition the oil separator should be there too as the thermoplastic items degrade over time and become quite brittle.

Questions & Answers

Ask a question
Question Posted by Lenny
What is the difference between this kit and M62TUTIMINGKIT1?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
One of the guides in KIT-M62TUTIMINGKIT1 is not Genuine.
Question Posted by Zoe
What other parts should I change out if I’m going to tear it down this much?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
This kit is very complete and replaces a lot of components. The only kit that takes it even further is KIT-11311741746KT1 which replaced the valley pan gasket, coolant pipe o-rings, crankcase vent parts, etc.
Question Posted by RICHARD
Thank you for responding. One quick follow-up: would I also need a tool to set the VANOS timing?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
VANOS nor the VANOS hubs need to be touched when installing this kit so it's not going to be required.
Question Posted by RICHARD
What tools are needed to do the timing chain/guide replacement on the M62TU44 (X5, 4.4l), and do you sell or rent them?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
We carry an array of timing tools for your X5 ([click here](/BMW-parts/X5?year=2003&e=188&m=227&keywords=timing%20tool)) but we do not have a tool rental program at this time. To do a replacement on the timing chain and guides you will need at minimum a crank and cam lock set.
Question Posted by a customer
how do i know its actually timiming chain issue
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
A bad timing chain or stretched timing chain will cause error codes and usually cause a rattling noise inside the timing case.
