SERVICE INFORMATION:
1.
NOTE: This Service Information is to prevent misdiagnosis.
The exhaust camshaft Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) actuator unit (shown in blue) has restricted movement when
turned. The intake camshaft VCT unit (shown in green) has a less restricted movement when turned.
SERVICE INSTRUCTION:
1. Remove the camshaft cover (see TOPIx Workshop Manual section 303-01A / 303-01B / 303-01F: - GTDi 2.0L
Petrol/GTDi 2.0L Petrol - Valve Cover).
2. Inspect the Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) actuator.
• If the VCT actuator is noisy but the 'stopper' is in
place, go to Step 3.
• if the 'stopper' has become detached from the VCT
actuator, go to Step 4.

3.
NOTE: Clockwise movement should NOT be
possible without also rotating the engine.
Fully rotate the camshaft anti-clockwise (1) and then
attempt to rotate the camshaft clockwise (2).
• If the camshaft rotates freely in both directions, the
VCT actuator is NOT functioning correctly; go to Step
4.
• If no clockwise movement was possible without also
rotating the engine, the VCT actuator is functioning
correctly.
• Reverse the removal procedure.
4. Renew the intake camshaft VCT actuator (see TOPIx Workshop Manual section 303-01A / 303-01B / 303-01F:
Engine - GTDi 2.0L Petrol - Variable Camshaft Timing Actuator).
