How much does it cost to change the Mini Countryman's timing chain?
Years 2010-2016

Answer

The timing chain allows the synchronization of the various engine components by transmitting the kinetic energy from the crankshaft wheel to the camshaft. Changing this component for the Mini Countryman usually involves a rather high cost which, depending on the value of the labor, could fluctuate between 800 and 1000 euros. The distribution chain should preferably be replaced every five to ten years depending on the intensity of use of the vehicle.
