Timing Chain Tensioner Blade. Porsche 955 Cayenne 3.2L 2004-06  ❭  95510550900

Timing Chain Tensioner Blade.
The OE MATCH Timing Chain Tensioner Blade is a engine timing component designed to provide a durable contact surface for the timing chain tensioner on compatible Porsche engines. This precision tensioner blade works in conjunction with the hydraulic chain tensioner to maintain correct timing chain tension, ensuring accurate valve timing, reduced chain vibration and reliable engine operation.  

Fits:

Diagram Ref No 13

The tensioner blade is engineered to withstand constant contact with the timing chain, hot engine oil, elevated operating temperatures and repeated thermal cycling. Precision to OE dimensions, it provides replacement fitment and dependable long-term performance, making it the ideal replacement during timing chain servicing, engine overhauls or preventative maintenance.  

What This Product Does:

• Provides a wear-resistant contact surface for the timing chain tensioner.
• Maintains correct timing chain tension.
• Controls timing chain movement and vibration.
• Supports accurate camshaft and crankshaft timing.
• Reduces timing chain noise.
• Minimises wear on the timing chain and sprockets.
• Forms an essential part of the engine timing assembly.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:

• Rattling or ticking noises from the timing chain area, especially during cold starts.
• Increased timing chain noise while driving.
• Excessive timing chain slack.
• Timing-related engine fault codes.
• Rough idle or reduced engine performance.
• Visible wear grooves or scoring on the blade surface.
• Cracked, broken or missing sections of the blade.
• Plastic fragments found in the engine oil or oil sump.
• Accelerated wear of the timing chain and tensioner.
• Severe engine damage if the timing chain loses tension or jumps timing.

Why Replacement Matters:

• The timing chain tensioner blade is subjected to continuous friction from the moving timing chain while operating under constant oil lubrication, engine vibration and high temperatures. Over time, the contact surface naturally wears, while the composite material can become brittle, crack or break due to age and repeated thermal cycling.
• A worn or damaged tensioner blade can reduce the effectiveness of the timing chain tensioner, allowing excessive chain movement, increased engine noise and accelerated wear of the timing system. In severe cases, the timing chain may skip teeth, resulting in incorrect valve timing and potentially catastrophic engine damage.
