DPTOOL Engine Timing Tool Kit for 3.6L Pentastar (2011–2019) — Camshaft & Phaser Locks, Tension Wedges

DPTOOL Engine Timing Tool Kit is a complete camshaft and timing-chain locking set designed to safely align and hold the 3.6L Pentastar VVT engine during service on compatible 2011–2019 Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles.

This precision kit contains the specialized fixtures technicians use to lock cam phasers, secure camshafts and relieve timing-chain tension on the 3.6L Pentastar VVT (2011–2019) found in many Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep models and the VW Routan 3.6L. Tools replace OE-style service pieces (fitment references like 10369A, 10200A series and 10202A) so you can perform camshaft and oil control valve service, timing-chain procedures, and phaser maintenance with controlled positioning and repeatable results.

How does this kit help during camshaft and phaser service?

The DPTOOL set provides dedicated fixtures that hold the camshafts and phasers in the correct position while you loosen and tighten the oil control valve fasteners and adjust timing components. That secure positioning prevents rotation and makes reassembly accurate, reducing the risk of timing misalignment.

• Includes camshaft/phaser locking tools for front and rear banks.
• Special wedges to relieve chain tension safely during removal.
• Compatible with OE service points and common repair procedures.

Which vehicles and engines are compatible with this timing tool set?

This kit fits Chrysler-family 3.6L V6 Pentastar VVT engines from 2011 through 2019 and is a replacement for several factory-style tools (10200A series, 10202A, 10369A). It is specifically compatible with the VW Routan 3.6L application but not with other Volkswagen 3.6L variants or VVL models introduced after 2019.

• Works on Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep 3.6L Pentastar VVT engines (2011–2019).
• Confirmed for VW Routan 3.6L only; not for other VW 3.6L types.
• Not suitable for VVL engines produced after 2019.

What tools are included and when do you need 10369A?

The kit contains six purpose-made pieces stored in a heavy-duty carrying case: camshaft/phaser holders, tension-relief wedges and related locating tools. The 10369A piece is used mainly on 2012 and newer models, and some early 2011 engines require 10369A if the right-bank front cover bolt head measures 13 mm.

• Six tools arranged neatly in a durable portable case for service portability.
• 10202 holds cam/phasers during OCV and phaser fastener service.
• 10200A wedge variants loosen timing-chain tension on specific banks.
• 10369A required if right-bank front-cover bolt head is 13 mm on some units.

How do I place the tools correctly on driver and passenger sides?

The kit includes side-specific pieces for accurate placement: 10200-1 and 10200-3 are designed for the driver side, while 10200-2 fits the passenger side. Following the correct placement prevents tool interference with nearby engine components and ensures correct phaser and camshaft lock alignment.

• 10200-1 and 10200-3 mount on the driver side cam/phaser locations.
• 10200-2 fits the passenger side cam/phaser positions.
• Follow factory service spacing and torque sequence to avoid installation errors.

Who is this for: Professional mechanics, independent shops and experienced DIYers who perform timing-chain, camshaft phaser or oil control valve service on Chrysler-family 3.6L Pentastar VVT engines will find this DPTOOL set useful. It’s aimed at users who require a purpose-built, portable kit that mirrors OE-style tools for accurate engine timing work on compatible 2011–2019 models. Verify your vehicle’s engine variant and the right-bank bolt size before ordering to confirm full compatibility.
