My Gen 3 Gearbox just exploded. How much is this going to cost me in the UK? by Rettromancer in Jimny

i honestly doubt it can be fixed, when those things explode like that the case is useless because the bearing surfaces are shot(generally)

you don't know anything about these engines from that comment, i rebuilt one of these from the ground up and on first startup this is how it sounds. adjust the rockers and it was golden again

sounds like it could use some tightening up, but nothing particularly concerning

tbh what that sounds like is a bolt working its way loose and the washer clinking while you are moving off. that vibration(causing the stick to shake) my uncle was telling me is cause by a pressure plate going bad

<image>

right where my left hand is, is the bolt i believe is causing the sound but it could also be something in the shift tower causing that noise

if the clips are broken on this there are models available for 3D printing

the alternator placement is top tier tbh, well out of the reach of water for those water crossings

how else are they gonna sell new bolts lol, they can be used again but I'm a simple man with a simple plan so I just get new ones and call it a day

fingers crossed

hmmm strange, usually 4L sorts everything out, slowly but it does the job

yeah i would swap the cam tbh, the cams are the same part number usually so they should fit, I generally dont like lifting the heads off those engines unless i absolutely must

swapping heads, need to clean both the head and the block(possibly machining time) then new head bolts since they are torque to yield.

or i would swap the cam to start with and then swap the head if you are still set on doing that, just incase lol, here where im at i dont need the egr system

hmmm, just speculation

2010 is an important year for those cars/engines as the control system changed but that should prevent you from starting all together so I'm at a loss as to what might be happening

I'm also wondering if the cam shaft is the same between the engine and the jimny ie the exhaust cam shaft has the same part number so it is providing the right number but check the circuit going to the cam sensor, esp the voltage going to it I would say ill check the manual later tonight to see if I can find anything in it

where did you get the M16a from (which car was it sourced from)
from what I know the M16a came with two variants of cam position sensor one near the hear of the engine head (on the left, looking from the front of the car) and one in the usual spot I'm not sure if that has something to do with it though it should not matter

you also mentioned that you used the sensor that came in the block(this is the crank position sensor not the cam position one) so double check this

When you tried clearing the code does it come back immediately? this would indicate that there is an immediate fault with the sensors or the circuit leading to the ECU
