Citroen Relay/ Jumper Oil Pump Removal & Fitting

We had several oil leaks in our Citroen Relay Campervan that needed resolved, one from the sump gasket and another from from the sump plug. I drained the oil from the sump, and then removed the sump.
Once I removed the sump I noticed that the chain for the oil pump was slack, further investigation found an issue with the tensioner which had to be replaced.
To replace the oil pump chain tensioner, I had to remove one of the engine mounts, the belts and pulleys, and then the timing chain cover to access it.
This is the same process if you are replacing the timing chain on these engines.

Ive got a slapping coming from my engine, just ordered the timing chain kit this week. Did you support the engine when taking off the engine mount? Any issues at all getting the mount back on?

Hi Frazer, the chain slap will be a slack chain tensioner. I put a hydraulic jack underneath the sump with a lump of wood on top of the jack to support the engine. I have no idea if this is how a professional would do it, but it worked and I had no issues getting the engine mount back on either. It will make life easier if you have long sockets and a long extension bar to reach down to the engine mount. I also moved the coolant tank out of the way for better access. Hope it all goes well 👍

Great video, nice to hear a Scottish accent too! My dad’s van is the mk3 but there is a bit of a racket coming from the engine, no low oil pressure and warning as of yet, the rattle evens out after a bit of driving, my thinking is it’s taking a while for the oil to get to the top maybe due to a pump on the road out or a bad tensioner like yours. Did you say you done the timing chain tensioners? What about the chain? Curious on the millage as well, cheers👍

Thanks, ours was just a bit noisy on start up, sounded like the chain slapping around a bit. I changed the timing chain and the tensioner at the same time, probably about 2 or 3 years ago now, so about 175k miles. There are chain guides and a spring loaded tensioner roughly in the middle, ours was worn badly. The chain looked fine, not stretched, so I think it was just the tensioner that needed replaced, but worth doing everything whilst in there. There is a known issue with oil pumps on certain years of these vans, maybe worth looking into. Good luck, Cheers 👍

Did your oil pressure low message come on mine has stopped soon as possible about 4/5 min max hopefully not done any engine damage

No, our van is older and doesn't have the LCD message display like the newer vans. I didn't even know the chain was slack, I was only in there trying to sort an oil leak when I discovered the chain was slack due to the tensioner. Hope your engine hasn't suffered any major damage.

How much slack should be in the chain?
