I have only owned the car for 4 months, the only thing that bothers me is poor gas mileage. I am only averaging about 13 miles per gallon in mixed driving.

SOURCE: My 2007 Mazda CX-7 is making a chattering sound on

the chain has stretched, it will get worse and you will damage the engine. you need to take it to the dealer so they can fix it under warranty. they now about the problem and in the last few months have seen a lot of these. if you are not over 60k then you still have power train warranty and can get it fixed for free.

How to install the timing chain for a Mazda 2007 cx-7 engine 2.3 with 90,000 miles

With the number of steps required to do this, your best bet is to purchase a Haynes manual (or equivalent). This way you have photos of the procedure plus all the correct torque spec for all the bolts when reinstalling.

How can I to install the timing chain for a 2007 Mazda CX-7

Hi!
Actually the timing chain should last for AT LEAST 100.000 miles, but I would say for even more miles.
Now my questions, just to give you the right answer:
1. Do you have at least 100.000 miles under the hood?
3. Which engine do you have in the car?
2. Why do you want to change it? Do you hear a kind of rattling sound coming from the engine? If yes, then you probably just have to correct the tensing of the chain. It is getting tensioned automatically but sometimes the tensioner of the timing belt gets bad, in this case you have to change only the tensioner itself. But if you are around 100.000 or more miles, I'd change the chain too.

Please give me a bit more details so I can help you, I can upload also a documentation how to change the bad timing chain tensioner and the chain too. Changing the CHAIN is not that easy as you do not have too much place to work, and you have to dismount many things. But again, just answer the 2 questions and I'll send you the correct instructions.

Cheers,
Steve Dave

I have replaced the timing chain & water pump on Mazda CX7 2007 with turbo. I cannot find anything on how to set the timing. Please help. Now no one will even work on it .

There are no timing marks, special tools are needed. The Mazda dealer should have been the only one to work on it. Mechanics never want to work on "Basket Cases" because of the time involved in the job. It turns a good job into a money loser. See if the dealer will at least set the timing marks for you, and you can do the rest without any liability to them. No one wants to do a job like that and then the customer wants a guarantee that there are no problems. The timing chain alone is a 5-6 hour job.
