Facom DT.FIAT-D1 Timing Kit for V1 Diesel Engines

The Facom DT.FIAT-D1 is a specialist timing chain kit designed for 1.3-litre diesel engines, covering the MULTIJET, CDTi, TDCi, and JTD/MULTIJET variants used across a wide range of European vehicles. Compatible models span multiple manufacturers, including FIAT, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Opel, Suzuki, and Ford. Vehicles covered include the FIAT 500, Panda, Punto, Doblo, Grande Punto, Punto Evo, Qubo, Fiorino, Idea, Linea, Strada Pick-up, Alfa Mito, Lancia Musa and Ypsilon, Opel Agila, Astra H, Combo C, Corsa C, Corsa D, Meriva and Tigra B, Suzuki Ignis, Swift and Wagon R+, and the Ford Ka. Accurate timing adjustment is essential on modern high-pressure diesel engines. Inaccurate timing can result in excessive fuel consumption, engine damage, poor performance, and increased emissions. On twin-cam engines in particular, pulleys can move once the timing chain is removed, making traditional mark-alignment methods unreliable — the correct tooling is not optional, it is a practical necessity. The kit is supplied in a carry case and includes precise instructions suitable for timing chain replacement or timing adjustment. Using purpose-made tools of this type reduces the risk of errors that would require the work to be repeated.
