When to replace the timing chain of the Toyota Yaris 1000?
Years 1999-2005

Answer

The 4-cylinder Yaris 1000 model is normally equipped with a timing chain, which does not need to be replaced at the same rate as the timing belt found on other later models. Unless the engine has serious operating problems, it is not part of ordinary maintenance as is the case for the service belt or the timing belt. The estimated duration of the distribution chain is 250,000 kilometers or every 5/6 years of use. The price of the intervention related to the replacement of the distribution chain can vary from 600 € and more.
