Ridex Timing Chain Kit • MX-5 MK3/NC (06-15)

Product Description

Timing Chain Kit (RIDEX Part No. 1389T2721 — OE ref LF01-12-201).

Complete replacement kit to restore correct cam/crank timing on MZR/Duratec petrol engines. Includes chains, guides, tensioners and sprockets for a reliable, OE-equivalent refresh.

You’ll typically see it on Mazda 3 (BK), Mazda 5 (CR), Mazda 6 (GG/GY) and MX-5 (NC) 1.8/2.0; see our compatibility table or verify fitment using VIN/chassis.

Commonly replaced if there’s chain rattle on start-up, stretch/slack causing timing correction, worn guides/tensioners, VVT timing issues, or during high-mileage preventative maintenance.

What’s Included
1 × Timing Chain Kit (valve and oil-pump drive chains, guides, tensioners, and sprockets). Some kits include two camshaft sprockets—only one is used on 2.0L VVT engines. Torque specifications and installation instructions are not included—refer to the Mazda workshop manual, or get in touch with our technical team for support.
