Belt or chain in my Hyundai i20?

Belt or chain in my Hyundai i20?

Hi I have an Hyundai i20 1.2 2016 and it has a cambelt not a chain, but I have read they should have chains. Should it have a chain?

Our answer:

Hi Carol,

Our data suggests that the 2016 1.2-litre engine in the i20 has a timing chain, not a belt. These are not interchangeable parts and they are hidden behind covers so you couldn't see them.
