When to change a desil timming chain
Our answer:
Hi Mark,
Very few cars come with set replacement schedules for timing chains. Unlike timing belts, chains are designed to last the life of the engine. Only if they get noisy or damaged, or something goes wrong with their tensioner or pulleys, do they usually get replaced.
