Take down intake manifold, remove serpentine belt (remember how it was b4 you removed it) take out alternator, take out starter motor, unbolt a/c compressor but do not remove the pressure lines.

Kia Cerato 2007 Vehicle also had a history of a/c problems and in the course of taking down the compressor we spotted some oil in the compressor pressure lines, checked with the leak detectors and confirmed with another detector and it seems to be the source of the primary leak. Will continue checks after I'm done with bringing down the engine.

Engine down. First thing is to find the timing marks!!! ![]() [size=1pt]nurey[/size] http://www.ksmanual.com/timing_chain_installation-230.html Once you have them then take down the camshafts and timing chain. Water pump is stiff and noisy and will be replaced.

Cerato Sorry parts came in late, worked thru the night and couldn't take pics. New headgasket reinstall every part back in reverse order and car started like it was never opened in the first place. Will keep vehicle till Monday, to look out for oil leaks and shortage of coolant. For now case closed.

I had a lot of 1MZ and 3MZ engines in the office this week(highlander ,RX300) and most of them had 1 thing in common P1349 or a related VVTI code. This is how I solved most of them, open up the filter for the OCV and have it replaced. They usually get clogged with sludge and oil residue.
