When changing the timing chain on the BMW 1 Series

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 2, F21, F20 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Timing belt

The timing chain makes it possible to keep the engine "synchronized" and in particular the crankshaft with the camshaft, that is, it allows the pistons and valves to be operated simultaneously while keeping the timing unchanged. As regards the timing of the replacement, it is necessary to refer to the use and maintenance booklet. However, the replacement interval is between 120,000 km and 180,000 km or after 5/6 years of use even if 120,000 km have not been reached. However, it is necessary to carry out preventive checks every 30,000 km starting from 60,000 km.
