Had the same problem. Husband fixed it replacing all 3 chains and all the internal parts with his dad and took them well over 4 days total cost around $600. You have to be real careful to make sure the seal around the timing chain case and oil pan is perfect or it will leak oil because its a liquid seal and you have to make sure the bead is perfect and you dont rub off the bead trying to get the timing chain cover back into a tight spot. The biggest part of this job is removing everything thats in the way around and under the timing chain case including the entire top of the engine

It is not only the miles, but also the time. If they went over 6 months before an oil change, this can cause the problem. The real reason is the oil was not changed properly via time or mileage. Hope you changed the water pump at the same time.

Well, 2 years later and the engine and chain are still doing just fine. I did recently replace the valve cover gaskets myself and the area under the valve covers look like a new car at 165k miles. I really do think the only VQ's that have timing chain issues are because of people stretching out the oil changes too far. I've always changed mine at 5k miles, but my car burns a quart every 1000 miles so even after 5k the oil has been refreshed pretty well. If it didn't burn oil I'd go with 3,500 mile OCI's on this car on dino oil or 5k OCI's on synthetic.

In your opinion, is it absolutely necessary to remove the upper oil pan. I've seen other videos on this job, and there is no mention of removing it. I know the Nissan shop manual states to remove it, but I'm hoping to bypass that step. My concern is the seal at the bottom of the timing chain cover since the upper oil pan would be already in place. I plan to do a dry fit to see how it will go.
@wwccauto9 жыл бұрын
I removed the upper oil pan because it was leaking from the gasket on the transmission side. With the upper pan out it is easier to assure that the lower part of the timing chain cover will seal when you put it back. However, you don't need to remove it if you don't want too, and you can put the cover back on and have things seal up nicely.

This vehicle is not mine, the owner swears they change the oil every 4 or 5 k miles which should be fine but who knows what kind of oil they are using. The sludge buildup in this motor is extreme. Joseph Moran: if it is just making noise at start up it could just be the tensioner, but this engine only made the noise at start up for the first little bit before it got much worse. Here is the video showing some of the sludge buildup found in this motor. Engine Sludge

Great video. Have a question. We have a 2005 Altima v6 with 73k miles that also has noise coming from the timing chain. I used a screwdriver with my ear to the handle and it sounds like the noise may be coming from the upper guide instead of the tensioner guide although I have not taken the cover off to verify it's the exact same issue as this one. It sounds similar. Since the chain is supposed to last over 100k miles, can I change just the tensioner and the 3 guides without removing the chain? Or does the chain have to come off in order to change the guides and tensioner?
@wwccauto9 жыл бұрын
You could replace just the guides and tensioner if you want. The chain on this engine seemed perfectly fine but it was replaced because by the time you get in there you might as well do it all. Usually all the parts come in the kit anyway. Having said that, the secondary chains that go between the cams and their associated tensioners require more time and effort to get to, but some may choose to leave them alone. Ideally you should do everything behind the cover, but ultimately it's up to you, and I think you could probably get away with just doing the guides and tensioner if you really wanted too.

fireblade639 My 2002 Nissan Maxima was making this noise. I replaced the front left catalytic converter in which the clicking noise on the left side stopped. There's still a clicking on the right side of the car so I plan on replacing the timing chain to see if that addresses the noise. The Nissan service department alleges that both of my cats were performing at an inefficient level. When I got the repairs done for the cat, my mechanic (including a second opinion) confirmed that only one cat came up on the diagnostic code. I'm hoping that reolacimg the timing chain will resolve the clicking noise however; I may not be totally convinced that the radiator side doesn't need to be replaced as well. Just providing you with something to consider.

Yes you can but there is a chance that you will slip your timing if the tensioner cannot hold up, mine needs to be serviced also but it's going to have to wait...

I have this issue with my Infiniti g35. When I drive it on the highway at high speed and release the gas pedal I hear the timing chain making a loud noise spinning

My Nissan murano is making a similar noise. But it only happens when its gear and accelerating the gas pedal. The car does not have to be in motion only in gear and be given gas . Would it be the tensioner or timing chain or with timing chain the noise happens even in park ?

Can I send you some videos so I can diagnose my 2007 maximas noise?
@whocares51886 жыл бұрын
Bro if I stuck something to the end of the tensioner so it pushed on the plastic thing so you think that could stop the noise?

I had the same problem with my 2014 Juke SL manufactured on November 29,2013. yet Nissan Canada looks at it as a 2014 model. Not covered under the Voluntary Recall Campaign P-4213 that covers all Juke models 2011 to 2013, Service Bulletin SB-10055923-4231, Valid from Sept. 22,2014 to Oct. 30,2015. Yet the problem of timing chain stretching wasn't discovered until May 5,2014. So I had to pay $2,440. out of my own pocket for the repairs. So why was my Juke not covered? Nissan has a problem with Model and Manufacturing dating!!!!

I sure hope you can answer my question. Nissan maxiam 2002 code p0011. In 2004 camshaft sponsor replaced recalled from factory. Car is making that noise but was wondering could replacing the sensor be a good idea before doing the timing chain? Could the bad sensor cause the noise?. Please answer and thank you. Sandra or hoopy lol.

Sandra Rose check some Nissan and/or maxiIMA specific forums. Do a search there and both on google for "p0011" and ask some questions there. I'm sure you'll get answers.

If chain breaks, will oil leak out from the bottom?
@LibertarianCoconut9 жыл бұрын
If the chain breaks, chances are you'll need to replace the motor because the pistons will most likely be hitting the valves

I am assuming you didn’t have to remove the timing chains, because you were only replacing the guides and the tensioner,right ?
@nissanneal4 жыл бұрын
Yes remove primary and both secondary chains. Replace plastic shoes for secondary chains while its apart. Also check gaskets for oil passages in rear timing cover. Replace inner cover if gaskets blown.

The sludge is also from taking short trips all the time and not letting the vehicle get warmed up.
