The timing chain tensioner on your Honda CR-V applies tension to your timing chain, either by hydraulic pressure or spring tension. This helps minimize the risk of the timing chain slipping on the timing gears. A worn tensioner may cause abnormal wear to the timing chain, or can cause the chain to slack or jump timing. This can lead to your CR-V experiencing low engine power, engine shaking or backfiring, hard starts, rattling engine noises, or a rough idle. If your CR-V has engaged limp mode or is displaying a Check Engine warning light, check your engine timing and the timing components. If the timing chain is worn or damaged, the timing chain and tensioner should be replaced at the same time. A broken timing chain can cause complete engine failure and extensive repairs, so addressing this maintenance at the same time may help save the engine in your SUV. O'Reilly Auto Parts carries replacement timing chain tensioners and timing chains for a complete repair on your Honda CR-V.
