After unscrewing the bolts, remove the ignition coils together with the spark plug tips.
Remove the crankcase ventilation hose and the forced crankcase ventilation system pipe from the cylinder head cover.
Disconnect the electrical connectors and remove the engine management system wiring harness.
Remove the ignition system malfunction sensor assembly.
Remove the cylinder head cover together with the gasket.
Remove the semicircular insert.
Holding the camshafts with a wrench, unscrew the camshaft gear mounting bolts and remove the wheels.
Remove the camshaft seals.

Remove the O-ring.
After unscrewing the bolts, remove the front camshaft bearing caps.
Loosen the bolts and remove the rear camshaft bearing cover.
Loosen the camshaft cover mounting bolts in several steps, remove the covers and camshafts.
Installation
Installation is carried out in reverse order, taking into account the following:
Coat the camshaft journals and camshaft lobes with engine oil.
Place the camshaft in the cylinder head bed.
Do not mix up the camshafts. The exhaust camshaft (1) has a slot (A) on its rear end.

Position the camshaft dowel pins (1) as shown in the figure.

Position the camshaft bearing caps correctly.
Check the camshaft identification marks and the numbers of the 2 bearing caps, install them taking into account their conformity and the orientation of the "front" mark (1). The inlet camshaft has the identification symbol I (3). The exhaust camshaft has the identification symbol E.

Apply sealant to the designated areas of the cylinder head.

Tighten the camshaft bearing caps in two or three steps. Then tighten the bolts to the final torque.
- Front and rear covers 25 Nm.
- Other caps 12 Nm.
Make sure the valve rocker arms are properly oriented in relation to the valve stems and lifters.
Using a special device (1) or a mandrel made from a pipe, install the seal.

Lubricate the lip (1) of the camshaft oil seal (2) with engine oil.

When pressing in the camshaft oil seal, use a special tool.

To prevent the pulley from turning, use a special device, and then tighten the bolts to a torque of 90 Nm.

After unscrewing the camshaft cover mounting bolts in several steps, remove the cover.
Remove the camshaft bearing cover gasket.
Remove the intake side camshaft and the exhaust side camshaft.
After unscrewing the bolt, remove the camshaft position sensor bushing.
Installation
Installation is carried out in reverse order, taking into account the following:
Apply engine oil to all moving parts before installation.
Install the camshafts into the cylinder head bed.
CAUTION: Be careful not to mix up the intake and exhaust camshafts. On the exhaust side of the camshaft (2) there is a hole (1) for the camshaft position sensor bushing mounting bolt.

Rotate the camshafts until the pins (1) are in the position shown in the figure.

Tighten the camshaft bearing cap bolts to the specified torques in the sequence shown in the illustration.

Tightening torques:
- Bolts marked in black - 12 Nm.
- Bolts marked in white - 25 Nm.
Use special tool 1 to press in the plug as shown in the figure

Lubricate the inner surface of the seal lip with engine oil.
Using a tool or a suitable piece of pipe (1), press the seal as shown in the figure.
