15Pcs Ecotec Timing & Balance Shaft Kit for Malibu, Equinox, Terrain & More

This Timing Chain Kit is intended for owners and engine technicians repairing the listed engine timing system on 2003-2005 Saab 9-3. The vehicle must also use 2.0L / 2.2L / 2.4L GM Ecotec DOHC engine, front engine, internal engine position, and Timing, balance-shaft & variable valve timing systems configuration.

Use this Timing Chain Kit when chain, guide, tensioner, sprocket, phaser, or timing-cover wear has been identified during diagnosis. Diagnosis should identify the affected component, and the repair must match 2.0L / 2.2L / 2.4L GM Ecotec DOHC engine, front engine, internal engine position, and Timing, balance-shaft & variable valve timing systems configuration. Also verify 15-piece timing and balance-shaft service kit and exact engine/year combination must follow the Compatibility table.

Relevant signs include startup rattle, timing noise, cam-to-crank correlation faults, or excessive timing-component wear. These symptoms can have more than one cause, so the vehicle should be inspected before treating the component as the source of the problem.

This Timing Chain Kit renews the matched timing-drive components that keep crankshaft and camshaft operation synchronized. Its configuration is specific to front engine, internal engine position and Timing, balance-shaft & variable valve timing systems requirements.

The package includes 1 x 148-Link Timing Chain, 1 x 23-Tooth Outer Crankshaft Sprocket, 1 x VVT Camshaft Gear, 3 x Timing Chain Guide Rails, 1 x Timing Chain Tensioner, 1 x 134-Link Balance Shaft Chain, 1 x 42-Tooth Inner Crankshaft Sprocket, 2 x Balance Shaft Sprockets (Intake and Exhaust), 3 x Balance Shaft Guide Rails, and 1 x Balance Shaft Tensioner. Keeping the confirmed components together supports the repair sequence described for 2003-2005 Saab 9-3.
