I would like to bring up to debate about timing chain and belts. In my views, I prefer timing chain because of reliabity and less worrying about it breaking suddenly like the timing belt usually do if you negect the service schedule. The timing chain will make some noise which will tell you that it is time to replace it soon, while timing belt doesn't....it does that like a ticking time bomb which is silent surprise. Plus, I hate how many car companies design their engines which piston and valves are close to each other, if it breaks...they crash into each other and end up with a costly engine replacement.
I'm currently worrying about it breaking because I'm already at 90k miles and it needs to be serviced soon and it is pretty expensive which costs $395 for the 90k mile service, I can't afford that right now and hopefully will do that next month as I'm going to work 24 hours on Sat and Sunday this weekend and hopefully get more extra work later this month and next month.
