Having to renew the head gasket on this vehicle. Does anyone have any knowledge on the camshaft sprockets/adjustment units.I've got Bosch kts and Kis instructions for timing the camshafts and they both describe them as camshaft adjustment units. My question is can they be removed and refitted as ordinary camshaft sprockets are, or is there there a special procedure. KIS also calls them vanos units and says turn the camshafts to check that the camshaft adjustment units can be locked, renew if necessary.Thanks in advance for any help, cheers Dave.
