Product Description
The 24376‑4A100 Timing Chain Guide Lever is an important component of the Hyundai and Kia D4CB engine timing system. It provides a stable, low-friction running surface for the timing chain and works together with the timing-chain tensioner to maintain correct chain alignment and operating tension.
This guide lever is commonly used in selected Hyundai H‑1, Grand Starex, H100, Porter II, H350, Solati, Kia Sorento, K2500 and Bongo III models equipped with the 2.5L CRDi D4CB diesel engine. Hyundai/Kia parts catalogues identify it as LEVER–TIMING CHAIN, rather than a complete timing-chain kit.

The published weight is based on an original-parts catalogue listing and may vary slightly according to production batch and packaging.
Accurate OE-style fit: Manufactured according to OE dimensions for proper positioning, mounting-hole alignment and contact with the timing chain.
Wear-resistant guide surface: Designed to withstand continuous chain contact, engine heat and repeated operating cycles.
Reinforced construction: The supporting structure helps the guide maintain its shape and position under timing-chain tension.
Stable chain operation: Helps control chain movement, vibration and lateral deviation during engine acceleration and deceleration.
Reduced timing-system noise: A correctly functioning guide can help prevent excessive chain slap, rattling and contact with surrounding components.
Reliable D4CB application: Suitable for selected Hyundai and Kia 2.5L CRDi diesel applications after OE and VIN verification.
Direct replacement design: No unnecessary modification should be required when the correct OE reference is selected.

When the engine is running, the crankshaft drives one or more timing chains that transfer rotational force to other engine components. The timing chain moves continuously at high speed and is affected by acceleration, deceleration, engine vibration and changes in oil pressure.
The 24376‑4A100 guide lever provides a controlled path for the chain. Its guide surface supports the moving chain, while the timing-chain tensioner applies the required pressure to keep the chain from becoming excessively loose.
Together, the chain, guide lever and tensioner help:
Maintain the intended chain path.
Reduce uncontrolled chain movement.
Keep the chain correctly engaged with its sprockets.
Minimize vibration and mechanical impact.
Preserve accurate mechanical timing.
The D4CB engine uses a multi-chain timing arrangement. For this reason, the condition of one guide should not be evaluated separately from the other chains, tensioners and guides.
A timing chain is made from metal, but it still stretches gradually after prolonged use. At the same time, the contact surface of the guide lever can become worn, cracked or uneven. Once the guide can no longer control the chain correctly, chain movement increases and the timing system may become noisy or unstable.
A damaged guide lever may cause:
Timing-chain rattling during cold starts.
Metallic noise from the front of the engine.
Excessive chain vibration or chain slap.
Uneven wear on the timing chain and sprockets.
Inaccurate valve or fuel-system timing.
Poor engine performance or difficult starting.
Timing-related diagnostic trouble codes.
Chain jumping or loss of synchronization.
Serious internal engine damage in severe cases.
Replacing a worn guide promptly can help avoid damage to more expensive engine components.
A short rattling sound may indicate that the chain is temporarily loose because of guide wear, a weak hydraulic tensioner or insufficient oil pressure.
Recommended action: Inspect the guide lever, timing-chain tensioner, engine-oil condition and chain elongation together.
A worn or broken guide can allow the chain to strike surrounding components even after normal oil pressure has developed.
Recommended action: Stop prolonged operation and inspect the complete timing system before the chain jumps or damages the timing cover.
If chain wear affects mechanical timing, the vehicle may experience reduced power, unstable idling, difficult starting or abnormal fuel consumption.
Recommended action: Check timing marks, chain elongation, sprocket condition and diagnostic fault codes.
Fragments from a severely worn guide may enter the timing cover or oil sump and could affect lubrication-system performance.
Recommended action: Remove all fragments, inspect the oil pickup and replace damaged timing components before restarting the engine.
Installation should be carried out by a qualified technician familiar with Hyundai/Kia D4CB diesel engines.
Confirm the OE number and engine code before dismantling the engine.
Disconnect the battery and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s repair procedure.
Set the engine to the specified timing position before removing the chain.
Use the correct locking tools to prevent the crankshaft or camshaft from moving.
Compare the new guide with the removed component, including its length, shape and mounting points.
Inspect the chain for stretching, stiff links, discoloration or uneven wear.
Check the tensioner for weak pressure, sticking or oil leakage.
Examine every chain guide and sprocket in the same timing circuit.
Clean the timing area and remove any broken guide material.
Lubricate the chain and guide contact surface with clean engine oil during assembly.
Tighten all fasteners according to the official repair-manual specifications.
Rotate the engine manually before starting it to confirm that the timing marks remain aligned.
Replace contaminated engine oil and the oil filter when necessary.
Avoid starting the engine immediately after installation without verifying timing alignment and lubrication.
