I always thought when that stretched they rattle mine never didWhat is the life of timing chains on the BMW engine?
I know the life of the jaguar ones on the the XK engine was about 100 000 miles before the chain adjuster came to its limit and popped out and then the damper broke and fell in between the chain and sprocket and the chain breaks .
Has anyone had broken chains or worn sprockets and at how many miles ?
