My mileage is 90k currently.I bought the car on 83k "one owner" but turned out to be lease car so not really driven by a caring owner (dodgy trader, but took him to court......as there were numerous issues with the car which he refused to fix or refund the value of the car).Most of my noise and problems were injector related, but I still have a slight chain noise (not like the fords) so I got the kit anyway. Had it best part of 4-5months now and just havent found time to do it / be without transport.I work for a uk parts supplier, we supply FAI chain kits across all brands, so it was no brainer to get that kit and at my discounted rate.
Yes 145k km approx
I can do but i have no specific plans to do it at the minute. Yeah theres a slight chain noise....doesnt sound faulty or broken but just worn with mileage. The ford engines over here sound terrible when the chain is worn and its nothing like that.The car just passed its annual mot test and emissions were spot on but i still think the fuel miles per gallon is poor.
The chain kit isFAI Autoparts - TCK79You can also get it without the gear sprockets TCK79WOPS. The service manager at my local dealer said they have never done a chain on an i30. However, his mechanic who helped diagnose the injector issues I had, he said they had done a 'couple' since the model came out in UK.

Maybe 15.000km if you have luck.It's a big job to do and why doing it twice? OEM 1.6 crdi kit is made from different manufacturers.Sprockets and tensioners are made by INA.Guide rails and chains is made by korean manufacturer KWM.The sound you hear is probably normal and can be heard at all likely 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 CRDi engines.

Hi Diesel1984, I assume from ("likely 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 CRDi engines") that you are in Europe/Britain.Are you a parts supplier or mechanic?

All hyundai/kia engines 1.1-1.7 crdi have the same timing system. Same timing chain kit also can be installed at 1.1 and 1.7 engine.right.I never seen any crdi engine that needs chain change or snapped/stretched chain. Also all 1.6 crdi engines have that sliding metal sound that is coming from timing chain area. This sound is timing chain that is rolling on timing chain cover-bolt housing. This picture is when new chain/tensioner is installed.. Found this on internet this is not mine...
OK.This is the sound when the chain is completely stretched. Probably very long oil service, clogged oil lines. Kia Rio CRDI Engine Noise (HELP) - YouTubeThis is normal sound of sliding timing chain (43. sec) Engine sound CRDi 1,5VGT 110hp, 235 torque, 2007ear. - YouTubeI seen 1.6 crdi with 30.000km and 1.6 crdi with 315.000km+. Both have this sliding chain noise and they have it for a long time, and for a long time this noise is not changing to higher sounds like chain rattling from first video.CRDI timing system is "noise free" few thousand km from when is brand new.After some time this "noise" can be heard and "noise" is sliding of timing chain on chain cover.light scraping chain on alluminium housing is not dangerous as it acts like guide and does not cause cracking or stretching chain. Not sure what happened with this engine on pics.. As i said found them on googlee
If you remove injectors and rocker cover.. maybe you can see small part of system
Sounds perfectly normal to me, no sliding or rattling. Hard to tell if any noise coming from chain areaLooks like you have too long serpentine belt. Too much slack on belt is causing tensioner to bounce like this.
It's not the belt.You should have seen it with the seized over run pulley. It was hammering that's how violent it was. SO much so that I thought the tensioner was stuffed which it was not. Always smarter after the fact but would preferred not to spend $$ to figure that one out.
Well there are 4 sizes of aux belt on d4fb. 1800,1805,1810 and 1815. Lenght of the belt deppends on tensioner puĺley size. Oem size is of that pulley is fi65 on mine.M n was also doing the same thing with 1815 belt. After changing it with conti 1800 bouncing of tensioner arm stabilised to almost none. Car was vibration free after putting the right belt also. And yes oem belt was 1801 without upper idler roller.
