2015 Volvo D13: Overhead Valve Adjustment
While engine was on idle, I noticed ticking sound close to 5th cylinder and thought it probably was a good time to do valve adjustment since my truck has 630K miles on her.
You can find your engine specification on top of valve cover on what's the required clearance for your engine.
Tools Used:
1) Flywheel Barring Tool - amzn.to/3G1wYus
2) Feeler Gauge Set (We had 2 since you will need to have on both sides of exhaust and engine brake clearance checked at the same time) - amzn.to/3G1oWBz
3) Torque Wrench 3/8-Inch Drive (10-80 ft.-lb.) - amzn.to/49G5yaT
4) Torx Bit Set - amzn.to/46hGjsK
5) 1/2 Inch Drive Wrench Drive (We had long 250 lbs torque wrench but this should do the job to rotate the cylinders) - amzn.to/40DFGIG
Video Production:
1) iPhone 15 Pro - amzn.to/47fEQo7
2) External SSD - amzn.to/3G5GpZy
This is a cool video, love the high definition!
You need to do valve adjustments I would say every 120 or 140 thousand miles, if you wanna turn the crack over it n the d13 engine while you stand at the top, take a 15/16 socket and racket and put it on the altinator pully nut and pull up as if you were loosing and it will spin the cam where you can see it to for valve adjustments
And I would use dog bones for the torque wrench not sockets you wanna hold the adjustment screw still cause the jam nut will pull the screw up by 1000 of an inch and adjustment will be off buddy
Great video
Thank you
How often do we need to do the overhead adjustment

Just wondering if your valve adjustment fixed your issue.
Yes it did, there is no more knocking sound by 5th cylinder
