Product Details

Cloyes 9-6138 is part of the Cloyes timing chain guide line, engineered for precise chain tracking in modern overhead-cam engines. As a timing chain guide, it helps keep the chain properly aligned between the crankshaft and camshaft, which is critical for stable valve timing and quiet operation. Cloyes has focused on timing system components since 1921, and this guide reflects that experience with materials and design intended for durability in demanding engine environments. This part cross-references Four Seasons 96138 for the same application.

Compatible With select Lexus models including 2018-2022 Lexus IS300, left; 2018-2021 Lexus NX300, left; 2018-2019 Lexus GS300, left; 2018-2019 Lexus RC300, left; 2016-2017 Lexus GS200t, left; 2016-2017 Lexus IS200t, left; 2015-2017 Lexus NX200t, left; and 2016-2017 Lexus RC200t, left. Use Cloyes 9-6138 when servicing the left-side timing chain guide on these Lexus applications.

What It Helps Address

  • Timing chain noise from a worn guide surface
  • Chain misalignment in the valve train
  • Uneven wear on timing system components
  • Timing instability caused by guide deterioration
  • Service issues related to aging left-side guide hardware

Installation Notes

Inspect the full timing system before installation. Cloyes recommends replacing the chain along with the tensioners, guides, and sprockets during service to help maintain total timing system integrity. Verify left-side placement and confirm vehicle fitment by year, model, and engine configuration before assembly. For best results, replace related timing components as a matched set during engine service.

Quality Assurance

Cloyes timing components are backed by technical support and an industry-leading warranty. The 9-6138 is engineered to deliver quiet operation and durability that meet or exceed OEM performance standards.
