2016 ford focus st,
Camshaft position faults traced to stretched chain.
Supplied and fitted new chain kit and both vvt solinoids.
New oil and filter and was as good as new again. 😊

That time of year again where I make a bit time for my own car.
Mercedes c43 AMG
In for its annual service using genuine mercedes parts.
Also a panamerica front grill upgrade.

Unfortunately at the moment if this interests you I can't update the digital service history with mercedes although I am in the process of setting it up and hopefully have access to mercedes dsb soon.

2014 mini 1.2 petrol b38 engine.
Came to me as a non runner.
Diagnosed as failed timing chain.
Stripped and repaired top end damage and replaced all 3 chains, guides and both tensioners.
New oil and filter,
Lost count of how many of these new b series chains I have replaced now.
If you have a n or b series engine or any chain engine really touching 100k I recommend you have the chain replaced.
All chains in all makes and models eventually fail. It's cheaper to replace the chain as prevention rather than leave it until it fails which most of the time causes significant damage to the top end. In this case the valves survived, only minor top end damage which was very lucky.
