Timing Chains of the Land Rover Discovery Sport

Model: Land Rover Discovery L462, Discovery 5, MK 5 - Years 2017-2024
Part: Timing belt

In this video, you will see that a Land Rover Discovery Sport has not just one timing chain, but three. On one side, there is an upper chain and a lower chain, where the upper chain is very loose: yet this is a vehicle that has just 62,137 miles; however, the absence of debris indicates that this vehicle has always been serviced with high-quality oil. On the other side, we see the third chain, which is related to the oil pump, where the pump has already been replaced. In the lower chain, the YouTuber installs an intermediate gear with rubber inserts that will help extend the chain's life to 111,846 miles, which is its proper lifespan.
