It has a chain but I think they do need checking/replacing along with the tensioners.

I don't know the service interval for sure, but I think it was around 70/80k?

Cheers,

Andy

the chains last the life of the engine or until they snap!!
Mine has done 176K and is still fine,I have 4 other V6 mondys in stock at the moment, none of them have any engine issues bar the usual headgasket/ water pump issues which 2 of them have

Our v6 that hit 240k didnt have either tensioner or chain replaced.

Just do a basic good service n drive it
