Thank you for this valuable video. big help here. Now as putting engine to top dead center, anything i should check on timing chain before disassemble it

This was awesome!! Well done!

You don’t have to remove the camshaft for the intake side cam gear

Put what on top dead center?

Finally a real Technician ! . . . I am a retired old school RR tech so not familiar with these new systems - My daughter's 2009 Corolla recently developed a severe power loss condition - starts easily but no real power any more. She was told that her best option was - get an exchange engine ! My problem with that solution is - - it's a total COP OUT ! . . . real techs don't do that sort of thing - we fix the problem . . . Thank you for showing me that this problem is fixable - - - TIME TO GET THE TOOLS OUT AND PUT THEM TO WORK !

How you know when the vvt is bad????

now It wouldnt hurt to put a few drops of blue locktite on that cam gear bolt= great video

Older video. Decent starting point but there’s some info missing id have questions on. But none the less, it’s a good tutorial to help others.

Hi and thank you for video. big help. Toyota came up with updated version of intake cam gear with item # 130500T050. I was told it comes locked. I have to unlock it, torque it on camshaft, then lock it !! is this correct ?

This is the part I used. Ordered on ebay for $149 GENUINE TOYOTA COROLLA PRIUS MATRIX xD 1.8L ENGINE TIMING CAM GEAR 13050-0T050

Just the intake cam VVT rattles, right?

Thought the rear one was the vvt gear?

I was watching this video because I heard a raddIe noise with my car and search the cause thankfully I found a reason why and thought out the video I hear the song 31:35 A.D.I.D.A.S ~ Korn. Great video and thank you for sharing 🙏🏽

Great Video Thanks for posting the video. Do you lock the VVTi Gear at some point after torquing it down to 40 ft-lbs? Or Wondering if I should leave it.

muchas gracias por tu video me fue de gran ayuda, para resolver el problema del sprocket vvti

@18:40. What's the wrench (MM) size?

Thank you for posting this video. I did my intake cam gear in my 2010 corolla a few days ago and the start up noise is gone. Your video really helped!

How do you repair vvti sprocket? Any video about that?

Bit of comment why ypu just change 1 cam shaft hear and didn't show how ypu took cam shaft chain tensor

@sandersautosolutions4246 I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla LE with 125k that started making the cold start rattle two years back. Only happens on cold starts. I hardly drive the car. Will this rattle damage the engine or can I live with it?

I have a 2012 camry with the rattle on start up I was under the impression it was the other gear from other videos and no cam removal needed Please help

Just curious, why not change both vvt cam gears? And you have a video on how you rebuilt them?

Thanks for doing this - I appreciate it.

Ok my is a 2021 i have the 1.8 Cylinder does mine have a timing chain

How do you rebuild the cam gear?

Life saver!!!! Thank you for showing me the way!

How do you know when you reach the top dead center? TY.

I didn't see him change the 3 gaskets on the oil ports to the vvt sprockets!

Where to get torque specs?

why not replace chain and everything.They do stretch over time and mileage

Great video! Thank you for sharing.

Wish I could do this to my 2grfe V6

Did I miss how you removed the timing chain tensioner?

Thanks

this worked amazing got the job done in 4 hours on my Pontiac Vibe and it saved me over 2000 dollars thank you sir

Hi i have a question, so i have a 2012 toyota camry that also needs a cam gear do i do the same steps as you?

If I just want to replace the old cam gear with a new one, can I install the new one at the proper timing by copying over the marks from the old gear?

Very good, thanks for this very useful information but you didn't explain about the vvt filter 🫡

💐💐💐👍❤️💯

I used this video along with another to change my intake vvti gear. Thank you for the video. I bought the gear aftermarket from standard automotive. Vvt530 it was significantly less than oem, but on my 09 corolla s Canada made. The light shallow marks on the new gear had to be used to line up for timing. Just something to consider if someone buys an aftermarket gear.

This just saved me $1,200

Do you have a video of what you did to the originals to make them work better? Also, is it just the intake that needs replacing or fixing?

Do you remove the chain tensioner before removing the upper guide?

Worked like a charm, to unlock it I used a simple tire/ball air pump that connects to the cigarette lighter port. Wrap the electrical tape around, poke a hole and zip tie the edges

Same problem, i have a cali emissions engines but cant seem to find the exact part. Can i use federal emissions part or does it even matter at all

how do you mark the gear if you put a new gear on with no marks?

Do you ever pull the timing cover and replace the chain? All data is saying 9 hours for cover removal does that seem right?

I'm sure you should apply lubricant to the bearing surfaces prior to re-installing the carriers. Especially after wiping them dry as shown here.

Yo escuche que sigue el ruido al encender ?? O estoy escuchando mal

I had a rattle on start up, I watched and performed this video step by step and now my car does not rattle anymore! Thank you very much! 😊
