Good luck!
Thank you for the response. Ive heard something similar but wanted to confirm on the Bentley manual. I know how to get to the pads and solenoids but wanted to know more about the timing on these cars.

If anyone can confirm a few things would be great....
2.5L Engine

Removing the valve cover as long as Im removing the bolts from out to in and reinstalling the valve cover in reverse I should be good right?

When working on just bank 1 and setting crank at TDC and confirming lines and notch facing outward when removing the cams and reinstalling basically just make sure that they are the same?

When just working on bank 1 - 3 do I just remove that cylinder timing tensioner only or do I remove all three?
