BMW Z4 Timing Chain Tensioner
BMW Z4 Timing Chain Tensioner keeps the engine crankshaft and camshaft moving together by keeping the chain taut and preventing the chain from rattling and causing power loss. Worn tension allows slack, shifting cam timing by several degrees and cutting fifty horsepower. Thus, each BMW Z4 gets a boost when the Timing Chain Tensioner, chain, sprockets, and guides are swapped as a set. Across model years, two styles are seen: that of a hydraulic spring-loaded Timing Chain Tensioner powered by oil pressure and the more heavy-duty version built to hold force, even in the case of a low oil supply. The hydraulic unit pushes the chain guide for everyday reliability, while the reinforced version is suitable for spirited driving in BMW Z4, erasing slack during high RPM changes. Both designs share one goal: provide precise valve timing to build line-up marks or to fine-tune with adjustable gears. Sturdier Timing Chain Tensioner pairs well with roller sets, multi-keyway crank sprockets, and covers that allow the user to advance or retard cam phasing in order to tailor torque or fine-tune top-end pull. Whichever design is fitted, BMW Z4 owners who replace the Timing Chain Tensioner along with associated parts benefit from quieter running and longer engine life.

BMW Z4 Timing Chain Tensioner Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q:What are the steps involved in the removal, inspection, and installation of the Timing Chain Tensioner and Variable Timing Sprocket as part of the secondary timing chain procedure on BMW Z4?Posted by Wiliam R.A:Camshaft sprockets are further involved in the removal and inspection process as well as the installation of the secondary Timing Chain. This sprocket is assembled with the oil pump drive sprocket and on some engines, it is press fitted at the end of the crankshaft. To uninstall it, the first timing chain which is the primary timing chain has to be disconnected and then shifting the sprocket off the crankshaft. If it is a press-install, the recommendation is to use a three-jawed puller and while applying the puller care has to be exercised to cover the threaded bore with pulley hub bolt or metallic spacer. There is the installation orientation of the sprocket to be considered. If a Woodruff key has been removed, it should be restored if it is loose. When it comes to the examination, the following procedure should be taken: examination of the timing chain. Just before installation the Woodruff key should be placed again, also the sprocket has to be placed in the correct manner. In case it is a press-install it must first be heated to 302-degrees F (150-degrees C) and then aligned to the Woodruff key and hammered in. The primary timing chain should then be reinstalled. As for the secondary chain tensioner, it can be withdrawn only after one unscrews the bolts meant to retain it and takes out the timing chain known as the secondary one. After that, the locking tool should be taken out; then, the plunger, the spring, as well as the housing. The body of the tensioner should be checked for signs of wear and damage and usually worn out parts replaced. When reassembling, the cut-out must be placed on the right-hand side of the engine in case of reinstallation of the plunger. The chain tensioner should then be bolted back in place and tightened securely, the tensioner then should be locked before the secondary timing chain is bolted back in place. Replacement of the primary chain tensioner is also done as part of the primary timing chain removal and installation.Answered by BMW Parts Specialist Brandon / Aug 16, 2023
