How to replace the LH secondary camshaft intermediate timing chain on 2010 Cadillac STS?

Question

Accepted Answer

The process starts with engine front cover removal when replacing the left side Timing Chain. Your work starts by removing the right bank Timing Chain Tensioner (LHT) before proceeding to take out the right bank Timing Chain shoe and right bank Timing Chain Guide and right bank Timing Chain. Start by removing the primary Timing Chain Tensioner followed by the primary upper Timing Chain Guide and the primary Timing Chain. The correct replacement procedure is to remove the left bank Timing Chain Tensioner (LHT) followed by the left bank Timing Chain shoe, guide, idler, and chain. Left bank Timing Chain idler then finishes the sequence. All components within the camshaft timing drive need cleaning and inspection before replacing any required parts. To begin installation place the left bank Timing Chain first followed by the left bank Timing Chain idler after which you should add the left bank Timing Chain Guide and left bank Timing Chain shoe before adding the left bank Timing Chain Tensioner. The order of installation includes the right bank Timing Chain idler followed by the primary Timing Chain then the primary upper Timing Chain Guide and closing with the primary Timing Chain Tensioner. Finish your installation by installing the right bank Timing Chain and its guide and shoe followed by the tensioner before returning the engine front cover.
