Timing Drive Function

INA ZT0013 is used in the engine timing drive to help maintain correct chain tension and gear ratio control. In a 1994-1995 BMW M3, lower timing chain service, this component supports stable power transmission through the valve train and helps restore proper timing drive operation when the original tensioner piston is worn.

This part cross-references Febi-Bilstein 26296 for the same application.

Common Issues It May Address

• Timing chain slack at the lower drive
• Noise from a worn or weak tensioner piston
• Irregular timing drive operation
• Reduced chain control during engine operation
• Service replacement for lower timing drive wear

Installation Notes

Verify engine application, position, and part number before installation. For BMW M3 timing chain tensioner piston replacement, confirm the lower location matches the original component and inspect related timing drive parts for wear during service.
