How to replace the Cam Gear on Bank 2 (Left Side) Intake on 2010 Buick LaCrosse?

The first step when replacing the bank 2 (Left Side) intake Camshaft position actuator is removing the left exhaust Camshaft actuator. The next step involves unbolted the intake Camshaft position actuator followed by removing the left intake Camshaft position actuator. Verify that the new actuator is for intake by examining its body for the in marking for optimal engine strategy and code prevention the actuator needs installation in its specific designated position. The right intake Camshaft position actuator has its reluctor wheel orientation distinct from the left actuator which should position its wheel edge at the sprocket peak. The highlighted timing chain link on the left engine side should match the circle mark located on the outer ring of the Camshaft position actuator. An open wrench applied to the hex cast into the Camshaft should be used when tightening the actuator bolt to prevent Camshaft rotation. Set the intake Camshaft position actuator properly onto the Camshaft before fastening its bolt loosely while using an open-end wrench on the Camshaft hex to avoid rotation. Install the left exhaust Camshaft actuator before properly securing the Camshaft position actuator bolt.
