Trust me when I tell you I wouldn't have removed that TC cover if there had been a removable cover for the water pump... The DE has removable covers the HR does not....

BTW, mine is an '07 Journey with 175k miles on it. |
Did you have any success here? Was just quoted 2500 dollars to do this. Im not spending that for a car with 190k on it.

Yes. It's not a bad job. You do need a big breaker bar (I bought a 3' one) and a large chain wrench wrapped around the pulley. Plan on a couple of days taking your time. Get the Haynes manual and use it as a guide. Make sure to line up the timing and keep it lined up. I could probably do it in 8 hours now. And mine had about 185,000 miles on it and still runs strong. Worth doing. While you're in there you may as well replace tensioners and guides.

No, it's not necessary. There are a lot bolts on the timing cover so use something to keep track of where they go (various lengths).

TC has removable access covers for that very purpose. Haven't checked service manual lately but all you needed to do was: Drain Coolant. Remove access plates on TC cover Slightly rotate crankshaft clockwise to take slack out of chain remove oil tensioner. rotate crankshaft counter clockwise to take slack out of chain. Remove water pump fasteners. Use 8mm bolts to jack pump out. Drain oil and remove lower oil pan (this can also be done before removing pump to prevent mixing coolant & oil ) Replace Pump O rings and reinstall in reverse order. I have sucessfully performed water pump O ring replacement without removing TC covers legit thank you so much!! I can NOT find a good video anywhere for the vq35hr’s but this gives me more confidence on being able to do it myself. |
