Installing a timing chain tension bolt on an 2007 R56 mini turbo...but the chain is so tight the guide rail will not move in for me to put the tension bolt in.

You will have to push the tensioner in as you thread it in. That is the only way, the engine or timing chain can not be moved once the tensioner is removed.
If too tight, you may not have set the engine to TDC before removing. - Nick |
