My Timing Chain in my vehicle listed above 2.2TiD has stretched so I need to change it.

The engine is a diesel D223L but is actually an Opel Y22DTR engine rebadged.

Can you please point me to a step-by-step guide on how to remove an old timing chain and fit a new one please?

Thank you for any help and guidance you can give.

Hi,

I apologize for the delayed response.

This model isn't offered in the US with a diesel engine. I have information on the other engines, but there is nothing in my manual for a diesel.

Are you located in the US?

No I'm in the UK.
If it helps it's the same engine as a Opal (GM) Y22DTR

Hi,

I wish it helped, but I have nothing related to that model engine. I will ask the site owner if he has a way to access info for your vehicle.

Take care,

Joe
