NISSAN 13070-2W200 Timing Chain Tensioner

The genuine NISSAN timing chain tensioner (Tension Chain) with part number 13070-2W200 is an essential engine timing component responsible for maintaining optimal timing chain tension and damping dynamic chain vibrations in ZD30 diesel engines. Operating hydraulically and mechanically, this tensioner prevents chain slack and skipped timing teeth, ensures precise synchronization between the camshaft/valves and the crankshaft, and reduces timing system noise as well as premature wear on the tensioner guides.

Technical Characteristics and Operation:

• Part Type: Hydraulic / mechanical timing chain tensioner cartridge
• Manufacturer: NISSAN (Genuine OEM)
• Part Number: 13070-2W200
• Application: Timing drive system for the ZD30 engine family (3.0 D, TD, DDT, DDTI)
• Function: Continuous chain tensioning via hydraulic engine oil pressure and an internal spring/non-return mechanism
• Typical Failure Symptoms: Rattling or metallic noise during cold starts or at idle, altered valve timing, accelerated chain wear, and rough engine operation
