Detailed Description

INA ZC0104K is a premium engine timing chain kit for BMW 118i, BMW 120i, and Mini Cooper applications. It includes the chain guides and tensioner needed for a timing service, while leaving out the drive sprocket and gaskets for engines where those parts do not require replacement. This makes it a focused solution for timing repairs on 2007-2016 Mini Cooper, 2011-2016 Mini Cooper Countryman, 2013-2016 Mini Cooper Paceman, 2012-2015 BMW 118i, and 2016 BMW 120i models.

This part cross-references 8 618 318 and TC1030K for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Timing chain noise or rattling at startup
• Incorrect camshaft and crankshaft timing
• Worn chain guides or a weak tensioner
• Engine performance issues tied to timing wear
• Noise from a stretched or aging timing chain assembly

Installation Notes

Confirm sprocket condition before installation, since this kit is intended for engines with no wear on timing sprockets. Inspect the full timing system, clean mating surfaces, and verify timing marks during assembly. Because gaskets are not included, reuse only if serviceable or source the required seals separately.

Quality Assurance

INA manufactures this timing kit to strict standards for durability in high-torque, harsh-environment operation. The design focus is long service life, stable timing performance, and reduced operating noise.
