I was just wondering how important it is to change your timing chain regularly. I haven't heard many people say they changed theirs, yet the car I just bought had its chain replaced after 100,000Km and the previous owner said it'd have to be done again around 200,000Km. Is this completely necessary?

Thank you!

 

Are you sure its a chain and not a belt?

 

I asked the previous owner the same question.. he said chain..?

 

Lol its a belt and do it every 60k miles.

 

what car are we talking here?
