![]() 5 minis are my hobby and this timing chain kit is the greatest.What are you saving ? 100 bucks? Get this kit and basically bullet proof the N14 engine. I will never understand why anyone would risk a cheap Chinese built timing chain kit off of eBay or Amazon. Doing the timing chain is a tough job but with these parts and keeping up with maintenance,you will never have to deal with the chain again. #Timing chain kit plus#The price is amazing for what you get plus cryo treated parts. It comes with everything you need plus stronger better built parts. This is the best available kit for mini cooper. Watch the videos below to understand it more. Note: This does require special tools to keep the cams and engine in TDC. We were the first company to offer this as as standard option because thru extensive testing we saw that the cryo really works and can keep parts from failing! This will be the last kit you ever need, and it's also the most complete kit on the market! Don't believe others marketing that cryo is only for race engine, every car benefits from this treatment!Note: Customer must keep oil in the car. This keeps your motor in time better as well as run more quietly and last longer with the proper maintenance. Which in turn will not allow the chain to stretch or the tensioner to fail as quickly, if ever. This increases the amount of martensite in the steel's crystal structure, increasing its strength and hardness. The cryogenic “heat treating” process is where the material is cooled to approximately −185☌ (−301☏) with the use of liquid nitrogen. Once the chain has stretched, the tensioner cannot keep the correct tensioner on the chain allowing extra wear on the tensioner causing it to fail as well as the ability for the chain to skip teeth and affect performance, as well as in extreme cases, the engine will actually crash into itself.Īs an added benefit, we are cryogenically treating all chains and tensioners as well as all the bolts and sprockets in all of our timing chain kits. Chain stretch seems to be the most common due to heat and lack of lubrication. Here at the shop, we have found that if you overheat your engine, follow dealer recommended oil services, or run it without oil for too long, you can wear out or break the chain guides as well as stretch the chain, and/or cause the tensioner to fail. This kit has all the most up-to-date parts, with the improved and longer tensioner. We have seen the tensioners come loose from the block, the tensioners fail, the chain stretch (badly), as well as the car skips teeth causing the timing to be off! It can even get so bad as to be off several teeth, to the point you cannot drive it without any check engine lights. Once it starts to rattle, it can jump teeth and cause the car to run poorly. If you start up your car in the morning and you hear a rattling at start up or when it's cold out, then you are having a problem. MINI Timing Chain Kit for any Gen 2 MINI Cooper S with the N14 motors (MINI Cooper S models from 2007 to 2010 or JCW from 2007 to 3/2013). This is the best most complete timing kit on the market!
