It is the 16 diesel V50 but does it have an engine chain as well the mechanic said it is starting to make a noise so might need replacing, if it goes it will course a lot of damage
Hi Brian,
No, the V50 1.6 diesel only has a timing belt, no chain, so something else is making the noise. It could be the belt tensioner I guess and yeah, it could do damage if that seizes so don't delay having it looked at properly.
