Clamping rail

Installed between intake 

camshaft sprocket and 

crankshaft sprocket

5) Chain Rails

The chain rails are used for optimizing the movement of chain drive system. And they also prevent the 

chain from contacting each other when the chain is loose, and reduces the chain wear. The chain rail is 

normally made of PA (Polyamide nylon), and PA66 and PA46 are used for the chain rails in G20DF 

engine. For the tensioner rail, PA46 is used to provide high anti-wear function and high strength since 

the load to the rail is huge. Ther is an open area for shoulder bolt hole in the clamping rail. The chain 

rails are installed by shoulder bolts.

1) Overview

Dual mass flywheel (DMF)

- Manual transaxle

Drive plate

- Automatic transaxle

Dual mass flywheel reduces the unbalanced 
rotation of crankshaft in manual transaxle 
equipped vehicle. The flywheel is installed on the 
crankshaft and is engaged to the clutch disc to 
transfer the driving torque from the engine to the 
powertrain system. Additionally, DMF decreases 
the rattling noise in transaxle and the vehicle 
vibration by reducing the differences of torque and 
rotational speed due to the combustion in engine.

The drive plate initially drives the powertrain 
system by using the power from the start motor 
when starting the engine. The drive plate is 
installed on the crankshaft and is engaged to the 
torque converter of automatic transaxle to transfer 
the driving torque from the engine to the powertrain 
system.
