Important information. Important information Features of replacing the timing belt

From the entire Kuga line, the timing belt replacement is assumed by the regulations on the 2.0TDCi and 1.6 Ecoboost engines. Our experience with cars of this type shows that it is highly desirable to make a replacement no later than every 100,000 km or every six years (whichever comes first). This will help you avoid sudden breakage of the belt during driving and subsequent serious damage and costly engine repairs.

Replacing the timing drive in the Kuga is standard for Fords: disposable consumables are changed along with the belt itself, but it is worth noting that when replacing, the use of special tools is required, which may simply not be in a non-specialized car service.

We recommend our customers to install a new water pump (cooling system pump) at the same time as replacing the timing belt. The fact is that its service life is approximately equal to the service life of the belt and, in order not to bring the car to the car service again in a couple of months and not spend money on the next replacement of disposable consumables and the time spent on disassembling the drive, we advise you to make a comprehensive repair. In addition, replacing the pump eliminates the "brooding" of the engine.

Parts prices listed below may fluctuate. This is due to a change in the prices of parts at the manufacturing plant itself. You can contact our consultants and clarify the cost of a set of parts at the time of the call.

The cost of the service of replacing the timing belt Ford Kuga

The cost of spare parts (roughly, the original kit with a pump): 9000 RUB

Cost of work: 6000 rubles, including replacement of the pump.

FUNCTIONAL PURPOSE OF THE TIMING CHAIN

Timing chain drive Ford Kuga is part of the gas distribution mechanism and is involved in the transmission of torque from the crankshaft to the camshaft. The chain can connect them directly or participate in the work indirectly, for example, connecting the camshafts with each other, if there are two of them, while functional purpose it remains unchanged.

Monitoring the timing chain condition, replacing "dampers" and tensioners, is part of the planned Maintenance the car and plays an important role in the operation of the engine vehicle... It is necessary to monitor the state of the gas distribution system regularly, as this directly affects the vehicle's power, sensitivity when supplying gas and fuel consumption.

FEATURES OF CHAIN REPLACEMENT

In most engines of old car models, chains with roller links were used to transmit torque, often the components went in two or three rows, this made the timing chain a very reliable, almost eternal mechanism that did not need constant maintenance. Often the car traveled up to 300,000 km. and the chain of the mechanism received only lateral play, and the worst thing that could happen to the gas distribution mechanism was the jumping of the links, breaks were extremely rare. Over time, the trend in the creation of cars has become the production price, efficiency, environmental friendliness and the weight of the car's engine, which affects its power. In these conditions, manufacturers began to strive to replace the timing chain with a lighter, cheaper and easier to maintain timing belt. And those motors, in the design of which the chains were preserved, the roller components were replaced by light plate links, more reliable than timing belts, but still not as strong as roller chains.

The Ford Kuga timing chain has a number of features that fundamentally distinguish it from the timing belt.

1. The chain is a durable mechanism, its wear takes much longer than the timing belt, breaks occur, but much less frequently than in belt-driven engines.

2. An open circuit of the gas distribution mechanism occurs quite rarely, and therefore an engine breakdown, which requires an expensive overhaul, does not occur often.

3. Timing chains are quite noisy, but with the current level of car noise insulation, this parameter becomes not very important.

4. When the chain is worn out, its backlash and lateral runout occur, this indicates the need to replace the old chain with a new one. Since the metal part is sagging and lateral beating is accompanied by strong noise, it is simply impossible not to notice and not attach importance to it. Noise under the hood will be the first "bell" indicating the need for vehicle maintenance.

5. The main disadvantage of replacing the Ford Kuga timing chain is that it is located inside the cylinder block and it is rather difficult to assess its condition without training and experience. In addition, dismantling and replacement, with such a device, is a long and laborious process, which means it is expensive.

6. Tensioners and dampers are involved in the timing chain - these are consumables that wear out quickly and need more frequent replacements than the timing chain itself.

TYPES OF FAILURES

1. At the timing chains, with full serviceability, a natural course is observed, which is compensated by the tensioners when the oil pressure is applied. A malfunction is considered to be a strong lateral beating of the timing chain, which appears when the links are stretched. Determine the real degree of chain stretching is possible only with a qualified inspection of the gas distribution mechanism.

2. Backlash is a direct stretch of the chain, which is observed during long-term operation, can lead to jumping of the chain links and malfunction of the gas distribution mechanism, this leads to a decrease in the sensitivity of the engine when the accelerator pedal is pressed and an increase in fuel consumption.

3. Opening the timing chain Ford Kuga - is the most dangerous damage to the engine, in the case of a chain drive of the motor, it is not common, but it does take place. In the event of such a malfunction camshaft ceases to be associated with crankshaft and can stop completely arbitrarily in such a position in which any of the valves of the gas distribution mechanism will be open. In this case, the piston, moving upward, may collide with the valve, which will lead to its deformation and the car engine will face serious repairs. It should be noted that the timing chain breakage does not happen unexpectedly, almost always this is accompanied by changes in the operation of the vehicle, a decrease in its power, a change in gasoline consumption and the occurrence of extraneous noise.

To prevent and prevent the operation of the gas distribution mechanism, it is necessary to periodically troubleshoot the timing chain, this will save the car engine from damage, prevent premature engine wear and increase its service life.

CAUSES OF WEAR

1. Operation of the Ford Kuga car in extreme conditions. Frequent driving on unpaved roads, towing trailers, heavy loads, driving at high speeds leads to an increase in the load on the crankshaft, spinning it up to maximum speed, which leads to a stretching of the timing chain.

2. Since the timing chain is located inside the cylinder block, it is completely washed engine oil and as a result is very sensitive to its quality. In the case of using high-quality synthetic oil containing specialized detergents in its composition, the service life of the timing chain is significantly increased.

3. The timing chain involves parts that regulate the tension of the chain, they are consumable and need to be replaced periodically. During maintenance of the car, it is necessary to check the degree of wear of the tensioner and "damper", untimely replacement these parts can cause the chain to stretch and the links to skip.

SYMPTOMS OF MALFUNCTIONS

1. Increased consumption of gasoline by car;

2. Decrease in engine power; 3. The appearance of clanking and noise under the hood of the car when the engine is running;

4. Complete stop of the car on the move, when trying to start the engine does not start, and the starter rotates easier than usual;

5. Precarious work Ford Kuga engine on Idling and in motion;

6. The emergence of shots in the receiver of the injector and the exhaust pipe.

All these malfunctions may indicate a shift in the valve timing and a loosening of the chain tension. If on your car you notice one or more signs and this list - immediately contact the service station for an inspection.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU NEED TO REPLACE THE TIMING CHAIN

Frequency of replacement for any Supplies for Ford cars Kuga depends on the driving style and the mode of operation of the car. With extreme driving style and aggressive use of the vehicle, it is necessary to replace the timing chain as it looses and wears out.

Under normal operating conditions, it is necessary to replace the timing chain as planned, every 100 - 150,000 km. mileage. If your car has an analog belt, it must be replaced a little earlier than the time recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.

Trust your car only to professional specialists who are able to correctly troubleshoot the timing chain, assess lateral runout and backlash, replace and correct the operation of tensioners, chain drive “dampers” and replace the Ford Kuga timing chain.

Timing belt replacement procedure for Ford Fusion

Sometimes the owners Ford fusion find out what a timing belt is when it's too late, after it breaks. However, it is a very important part, which is part of the timing mechanism, connecting the shafts and making them move. It is located on the left side of the engine, along the body. For its production, rubber and rubber of high quality work is used. The inner part of the belt has special teeth, since it is put on several rollers at the same time. For some reason, it can fail and become unusable, which is the reason for replacement. Today we will talk about how to independently replace the timing belt, when it needs to be done and what are the consequences for the Ford Fusion if this process is ignored.

Replacement timing belt is a rather complicated matter and requires a long period. In fairness, it should be noted that rarely anyone can afford such a job. If you are confident in your abilities, then proceed with the replacement, otherwise ask someone more experienced for help. In addition, if you have to do this for the first time, then it is better to put Ford Fusion in the garage and set aside a day to service it. Replacement will require you to have a certain set of tools and spare parts, among which are:

Timing belts, generator, pump.
Tension roller.
Crankshaft pulley bolt (40 mm long).
Torque and other wrench set.
Bolt for setting the crankshaft at TDC and use for the mark.
Crankshaft flywheel mounting device.
Shaft locking device.
Torque wrench.

When do you need to replace?

Automobile Ford fusion developed with a focus on the European market. It's no secret that the climate there is quite mild, the quality of fuel and roads is excellent, which would not be true of the statement about our country. Therefore, the maintenance schedule will not correspond to the one specified by the manufacturer. Company Ford reports that the timing belt should be replaced every 160,000 km. It is better to reduce the interval to 100,000 km.

As you understand, you do not need to spare time and money to replace the timing belt. In addition, the cost of such an operation is quite low. At the same time, there is an option to install new belts for the air conditioner, pump, generator, etc.

Features of replacing the timing belt

Armed with necessary tool proceed to replace the timing belt. The Ford Fusion does it this way:

We remove the belts of the air conditioner, generator and other devices.
We remove the generator and expansion tank... It can simply be pushed to the side, leaving it on its mounts.
Provides reliable and sturdy support under the engine.
Dismantle the suspension support from the Ford Fusion front axle. For this purpose, you need to unscrew the bolts and nuts securing the motor to the mudguard.
We unscrew the bolts of the water pump pulley and remove it.
Dismantle the suspension support bracket. For this purpose, you need to unscrew 3 bolts.
Remove the timing belt cover, which is attached with several bolts. Then we put in neutral and turn the crankshaft to the required level.
Dismantle the cylinder block plug Ford fusion and install the fixing device, while simultaneously scrolling the crankshaft by its mounting bolt until it contacts the rod.
We fix the camshaft, preventing it from turning. For this purpose, you use special devices that need to be put in the grooves. The linear mark should coincide with the top of the part of the not familiar camshaft, and the dotted one should coincide with the intake.
We pull the handbrake to secure the engine crankshaft to prevent it from spinning.
We unscrew the fastening of the pulley to the toe of the crankshaft and dismantle the pulley. The mounting bolt can be replaced.
We unscrew the bolts securing the protective cover and dismantle the belt. For this purpose, you need to release its tension by moving the leading branch to the side in full. The tension roller will return to its own) skill, the original position in which it needs to be secured with metal rods.

Now happening direct replacement belt. Be extremely careful not to let crankshaft Ford Fusion rolls when it has no belt. If it nevertheless turns, then this may be the cause of valve breakage.

Timing chain replacement 1.6 ford focus.

Then, car maintenance and timing belt replacement, in particular, is an integral part of the operation of FordFusion. By performing a number of inexpensive, alas, necessary operations, you can significantly extend the life of your machine and save money without any problems.

This is due to the fact that our climate is not designed for those operating conditions, which are specified in the maintenance regulations. Severe winters and constant temperature drops in spring and autumn can significantly reduce the life of the timing belt. Ultimately, if you run a timely check, the consequences of repairs can be several times higher than the cost of a regular replacement, up to and including repair of the cylinder head.

Where to change in St. Petersburg:

If the Ford Kuga 2 1.6 is equipped not with a belt, but with a chain, then it goes much longer than the belt. On average, 150-300 thousand km. This is due to the fact that the chain wears out much longer than the belt. But despite this, it also requires a check, at least every 70-80 thousand km. The fact is that the chain is not so noticeable, it still stretches over time and this can lead to a jump by one tooth, which will also lead to sad consequences.

The advantages of a belt drive of a gas distribution mechanism are that the cost and maintenance of such a motor is lower than that of a chain motor. But at the same time, chain motors can not work a little louder than those equipped with a belt drive.

The main signs are:
- wear of the belt surface;
- visible cracks, especially when bending;
- oil stains;
- other defects of which should not be on the belt.

In most cases, we recommend also changing the pump (water pump), checking the coolant and engine oil. The need to purchase rollers, tensioners, dampers, etc. determines the minder during work or at the diagnostic stage.

Diagnostics during repairs with us is free!

If the car is not in motion, we can send a tow truck.
