The timing chain typically needs replacement between 80,000 and 120,000 miles. However, higher-mileage vehicles often experience chain issues. Therefore, if you drive an older vehicle or one approaching 100,000 miles, it’s important to watch for signs that the timing chain may be failing. Moreover, addressing these issues early can help prevent more serious engine damage.
Signs a timing chain needs to be replaced include:
• Older, pre-VVT applications will generate engine rattle
Using the wrong oil is a common symptom that causes a vehicle’s timing chain to wear even quicker. The wrong oil can cause extra load on the chain and the engine will not be properly lubricated.
Each vehicle manufacturer specifies a minimum API oil service rating, a recommended viscosity, and often a specific oil.
