Can anyone help set up my timing/vanos

is there anyone on here who could possibly come to my 2003 range rover petrol 4.4 and set up the timing, had a local guy change the the tensioners and all chain guides as one broke up couple of months back, the problem is now he tells me now he hasnt got a clue on how to set up the timing/vanos on this engine, so basically ive got my motor stripped down outside my place waiting to be re-assembled but i really need someone competent to sort the timing out or finish the job completely, im in grays essex, anyone knows anyone who can do it? or can you do it for me, thanks in advance for any advice, other than telling me how stupid i am assuming the local mechanic knows how to complete a job before starting it

Holy crap...he took it apart without the correct timing kit and/or setting the engine in the correct orientation before hand.....

He must be a fecking idiot.

The timing kit is expensive (£200-450...mine cost me £240) but essential on the M62 to get it right.

The kit comprises of:
A set of locks to hold the cams in the right place.
A Chain Guide Tensioner bracket to set the chain tension correctly.
A set of locking pins for the Cam Chain Tensioners
A pair of VANOS timing brackets
I think a flywheel locking pin
VANOS Hydraulic Piston Socket

And then you need a multimeter to do the VANOS timing correctly once the cams have been locked in position.

Don't suppose you know, but did he atleast have the engine at N0.1 TDC (Firing Cycle) before starting?? Cos if he didn't, who knows where in the cycle the engine is.....will need a through coat of looking at to then put it back to No.1 TDC and Then Lock the 4 cams in the correct place, and also re-time the VANOS system.

Did he say he could do it, cos if he can't and he said he could....fecking ream the guy through and take him to small claims or something to get him to pay for someone who can.

Numpties shouldn't play with the M62 unless they know what they are up against.

That's a bit of a specialist job as Saint says. My manual runs to about 15 pages on this. Needs to be spot on.

Beisan systems have a few guides, look at the M62Tu engine , there is a timing kit on eBay for £150 but if it's not TDC already if you start turning the engine over it could collide, you need all valves shut.

As said, timing/vanos kits have come down in price now and can be found for around £150 on ebay.
The cam lobes of number 1 should both be pointing upwards (inlet and exhaust) but at an almost 45 degree angle if that makes sense, if this was done with the timing chain still fitted, it is firing number 1.
After this, you lock the cams at the rear with the bolt down blocks, insert the crankshaft locking pin, timing chain tensioner wedge and vanos locking pin.
With the vanos locking pin in place you turn the vanos bolt anti clockwise till it stops and check it is at the stop by using a multimeter to do a continuity check between the vanos front plate and engine earth. After that it's pretty much done but if it's not firing number 1,as said, problems.......
Good luck, hope you get it sorted.
