Chain tensioner

[Retro Andy]

It's best to remove your battery and carefully turn your C5 onto its side, I took a while refitting mine after the "Y" clip broke, but the way Chas has said will work, hook the spring first the put the tensioner into position.

Putting it on her side made everything MUCH easier. All fitted now and had a good run with no probs.

First bit of maintenance completed! Thanks everyone!

Nice one Dan , we all started with those small jobs. It wont be long before you start stripping and restoring c5's

Ha! We'll see Karl - I think you've underestimated how cack handed I am!
