2000 SUZUKI ESTEEM TIMING MARKS - 1997 Suzuki Esteem

SOURCE: Total cost to replace subframe

hi,

check with the dealer.
I had the same problem and I found out that the subframe is under warranty for 12 years or 288 k.
Suzuki did not recalled the cars, but they extended the warranty.
If you already replaced it, may be you can get your money back.
good luck

Carbon build up on pistons raises engine compression.This is normal.Go up one grade on gas and/or put some fuel additive.If this doesnt solve it,have timing belt/chain inspected may need replaced

I just came across this site. It shows you how to remove a timing belt, as well a realign it. It says it's for a Suzuki Sidekick, but notice the Esteem in brackets. Hope this helps.

On the Esteem 1.6L: the Crankshaft Position Sensor is located on the right side (passenger side) of the engine Oil Pan.

For the Esteem 2.0L: the CKP is located behind the engine Flywheel in the back of the engine block. It is necessary to remove the transmission to service the sensor.
