When to Replace the Timing Chain on the Toyota Auris D-4D

Model: Toyota Auris E150 - Years 2007-2012
Part: Timing belt

The Toyota Auris powered by D-4D is equipped with a timing chain instead of a belt; in general, the manufacturer guarantees the timing chain for up to 250,000 miles or ten years, so it is necessary to replace it after these timeframes. The procedure for replacing the timing chain requires the disassembly of the main parts of the engine block, including the removal of the cylinder head cover, the timing case, and the alternator; it is necessary to take the necessary references for the timing chain replacement for subsequent timing.
