The purpose of New Product Information is to highlight or indicate important changes from the previous model year.
Changes may include one or more of the following items:
| • | Torque values and/or fastener tightening strategies |
| • | Changed engine specifications |
| • | New sealants and/or adhesives |
| • | Disassembly and assembly procedure revisions |
| • | Engine mechanical diagnostic procedure revisions |
| • | New special tools required |
| • | A component comparison from the previous year |
Torque Values and/or Fastener Tightening Strategies
There are no changes to the fastener tightening specifications for 2007.
Changed Engine Specifications
There are no changes to the engine specifications for 2007.
New Sealants and/or Adhesives
There are no changes to the sealants and/or adhesives used for model year 2007.
Disassembly and Assembly Procedure Revisions
There are no changes to the engine disassembly or assembly procedures for 2007.
Engine Mechanical Diagnostic Procedure Revisions
There are no revisions to the engine mechanical diagnostic procedures for 2007.
New Special Tools Required
| • | The piston clip remover and installation tool
J 43654
has been replaced by
EN-46745
. |
A Component Comparison from the Previous Year
Two new designs of timing components are being used.
Third Design:
| • | The camshaft position actuator sensors are a new design. |
| • | The camshaft position actuators incorporate new sensor wheels that correspond with the new design of camshaft position actuator sensors. |
Fourth Design:
| • | New secondary timing drive chains, Inverted Tooth (IT) design. |
| • | The camshaft position actuators incorporate new sprockets that correspond with the use of IT chains on the secondary timing drive system. |
| • | The intake camshaft position actuators are different for the left and right sides. |
| • | The left and right secondary timing drive guides are new due to the use of IT chains on the secondary timing drive system. |
| • | The intermediate timing drive sprockets are new due to the use of IT chains on the secondary timing drive system. |
| • | New second design IT primary timing drive chain. |
| • | New second design IT crankshaft sprocket. |
