Cam Belt Cover noise

Hi, any one have any idea how to remove the cam belt cover AND REPLACE IT BACK SAFELY ?

i have this cranking sound coming from under neath the cam cover. any one have this same sound too.

If you have any noise from your timing bely area, you should NOT drive the car. You may break the timing belt or the car may jump timing. Either may cause serious damage to the engine. I would recommend that you have you the car towed to whatever shop you chose and have the car looked at. You should replace your timing belt every 5 years or 60k miles. Yes, there is a tensioner, we only replace that when the bearing is bad. If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me at Ray Brandt Answer Guys
