Chains & Tensioners

OEMatch Chains & Tensioners — Fit, Function, Confidence

Timing chains, guides and tensioners keep a Porsche engine’s valve timing correct across a wide range of operating conditions. This group of parts is specified for durability and stable timing under load; replacement is common during major service or when symptoms such as rattle, rough idle or diagnostic codes point to timing system wear.

• Timing chains for petrol engines
• Tensioner kits, hydraulic and mechanical
• Chain guides and rails
• Complete timing chain kits with seals and fasteners

• Restores accurate valve timing and smoother running
• Reduces start-up rattle and in-service chain noise
• Limits the risk of valve-to-piston contact from excessive chain slack

• Chain stretch or elongation from long service life
• Worn or leaking hydraulic tensioners losing damping or pressure
• Abrasion or breakage of guides due to heat and contamination
• Oil degradation or low oil pressure accelerating component wear

• Parts matched to Porsche timing-system specifications where applicable
• Options for hydraulic and mechanical tensioning arrangements
• Complete kits simplify overhaul work by including guides, seals and fixings
