It's not a body off job. I have done them.
Yes it's timed & you need the locking tool for the HPFP sprocket, but it's doable in situ.

The timing belt is similar to the 2.7. There is less room and you need to be careful with the vacuum connections for the secondary turbo as they are in front of the cover.

The rear belt has a locking tool which locates the HPFP sprocket in a little peg hole on the engine. So to get the timing right you definitely need the starter out to lock the flywheel, the front belt already done and timed ideally. Then you can get the back belt right. To adjust you need to undo the LH cam rear sprocket, which can be tricky, but best to check everything first, as you may be lucky and the timing is correct.

As with the 2.7 patience and a mirror are essential.

Regards
Steve

Hi Folks, could anyone recommend an independent Land Rover garage that they have had good experience with changing discovery 4 timing belts please in Lancashire, Chorley area?

Thank you

What symptoms would you expect from not having the rear belt timing correct?

Causes NVH issues short term, and pressure issues long term. Apparently.

Its not difficult to do the rear belt, so there is no excuse to not do it properly Thumbs Up

Same process as the 2.7, just a little bit more to take off, and lock the HPFP with the appropriate tools Thumbs Up
