How to replace the timing chain on a 2013 Nissan Qashqai J10 fitted with the 1.6 DCI R9M engine. Link to the Neilsen Ct4986 timing tool kit that was used for this engine: This Qashqai had a rattling noise coming from the engine, hard to get the camera to pick it up over the clatter of the diesel but it was pronounced and there was also an engine management light on with codes related to the camshaft being out of synchronisation.

However it possibly may be down to the wrong oil being used, or services being skipped. My mate just bought the car and wanted to leave it right, hopefully with this new chain and a more rigorous service schedule the new chain should last much longer. The R9M engine is one that was developed as part of the Renault/Nissan alliance and it seems to have replaced an older 2.0 engine. It is not the same as the smaller 1.5 DCI K9K belt driven engine. Also the 2.0 M9R engine although its timing locking tools look similar they will not work here. The R9M is used in a wide range of vehicles that are part of that group, also some badge engineered vehicles and Mercedes also use it in some of their vehicles. The list includes but is not limited to: - Nissan Qashqai (J10 and the newer J11) - Nissan X-Trail - Renualt Megane - Renault Scenic - Renault Kadjar - Renault Tailsman - Mercedes A Class - Mercedes C Class - Vauxhall / Opel...
