To replace the timing chain on the Suzuki SX-4, completely remove the engine block from its housing. Once the engine block is extracted, loosen the bolts securing the valve cover and the one located on the left side of the engine block.

At this point, loosen the bolts securing the chain tensioner, reducing the tension on the chain, and remove it from its seat. After removal, you can reassemble all the components that were just disassembled.
