dephaser(seals)

[e19anp]

Am getting my timing belt done, aux belt and dephaser pulley, do a need to change the 3 x seals behind dephaser and the other 2 and do a need to get a new crank pulley bolt or not, thanks.

There is only one seal behind the dephaser. I would change the camshaft seals and the crank pulley bolt (can be reused if the length below the head is below x). Seals on the gearbox-side always need to be changed.

I have the 2 round seals that came with timing belt kit, and have also been informed of 3 others 1 dephaser and 2 else where, gearbox? You mean the core plugs?

There will be 2 gearbox end (where the timing tool goes) 2 camshaft seals a crank seal and please change the crank bolt.

So am guessing the 2 in the timing belt kit, 2 blank caps are the gearbox end 2 (where the timing tool goes) so a just need to order 2 camshaft seals and a crank seal and a crank bolt

there is a kit you can buy for the seals and im sure you get new camshaft pulley bolts. The only thing thats not in it is the crank bolt which can be bought on its own

edit: the service kit is: 7701471629 and the crankshaft pulley bolt is: 8200557644

Exhaust cam seal is different to the dephaser seal as well. Check you've not got two cam seals that look the same.

A will buy the service kit and bolt then pass it over to the garage that's doing the job along with timing belt kit, aux belt, and dephaser pulley, is there any bolt or things a need to purchase for the dephaser as it didnt come thing anything just the dephaser.

The seal behind the big cap/bolt on the dephaser should be renewed.

Aye the seal behind the dephaser and the other 1 exhaust seal and some other seal and also crank bolt and also the 2 blank caps, am guessing the service kit from Renault will have all the seals in it that a need apart from crank bolt a will get it sep..

The 2 black caps you have in your kit are core plugs and as said above they go the gearbox end,

You need to order a seal kit from renault it consists of:

A brown seal for behind the dephaser

A black and brown seal for behind the exhaust pulley

Another brown seal with a slightly smaller hole for the vvt solenoid at the top of the block

A new exhaust pulley nut/bolt

new dephaser bolt

And finally a new dephaser cap that goes on the front of it

^^^all comes in one bag and costs around £30

crank pulley bolt is usually measured to see if it has stretched be on the safe side though and get a new one fitted.
