Toothed Chain
The camshafts are driven by the crankshaft
using newly developed maintenance free
toothed chains.
The toothed chain gear wheels are located on
the crankshaft and on the VANOS unit. Use of
the new toothed chains (1) optimizes the drive
chain rolling process and reduces noise.
Crankshaft Sprocket
The crankshaft sprocket (3) has three sets of gear
teeth:
1. One roller chain gear wheel for the oil pump drive.
2. Two toothed chain gear wheels for the camshaft drives.

The sprocket will also be fitted to a 12-cylinder
engine variant which will be available in the future.
Please observe the installation instructions and the rel-
evant labels (V8 Front/V12 Front) when installing the
sprocket.
Chain Tensioner (cylinder bank 1-4)
A chain tensioner is mounted in the side of the cylinder
head for each camshaft drive chain. There is a guide
ball in the chain tensioner tip that moves in an arched
groove in the tensioning rail.
The tensioner seal must be replaced each time the
tensioner is disassembled. The tensioners are the
same for both the left and the right cylinder heads.
