A timing chain runs inside the engine, as it needs to be lubricated by the engine oil. A timing belt typically needs to be replaced between 40,000 and 100,000 miles depending on the vehicle. A timing chain doesn’t need to be replaced unless there is a problem with it.

Top Symptoms of a Bad or Failing Timing Chain:

1. Engine misfires.
2. Metal shavings are found in the oil.
3. Engine rattles while idling.
