Yes.. there is one... and I'm sorry I dont have it with me... its online... I'm not on my personal computer as I am deployed in Iraq... but I do have it saved on my own computer... any ways.. If I remember correctly the way I cam about it was to search google for the same thing you just asked.. just type in e36 timing chain tensioner. Just look around I know its there somewhere... I would for you but I'm on a slow computer with a time limit...

Good Luck,

Les

those are a serious pain in the ass. are you sure yours is bad? that's like a one in a million failure here. If your VANOS isn't working properly, that's most likely because the solenoid cut out. What exactly is your problem, and your level of technical ability?
