Pictures of a Nissan Micra K12 timing chain replacement.
This job is not for the faint-hearted. The worst thing is that the engine has to come out for the procedure.
Also, there are no gasket sets for the sump and the rest. So just like in the factory,
you have to use RTV. Clean every surface with an abrasive pad and brake/clutch cleaner.
If you are replacing the VVTI bit with new, no need to do the setup like with the old one, where
you need to apply 3 bars pressure to the oil feed to set it.
On the 4th picture, it can be seen how bad was the filter to the VVTI due to missed oil changes.
