All,
I have a 2012 minivan with the Pentastar 3.6. I just replaced all lifters, rockers and the exhaust cam on the left side only. I have not started the right side yet. All dots, arrows and painted references were in place at assembly.
As a sanity check, I rotated the engine a number of times by hand from the crank bolt to see if everything lined up again. The paint references on the chain did not line up. They were about four teeth off, all else look good.
Is this normal?
Thanks

 

Timing chain system will not line back up every 2revulutions like a timing belt system will
