Your vehicle's Engine Timing Chain helps manage the opening and closing of different valves inside of your vehicle's engine. This timing chain is a critical component in your vehicle's combustion process.
Put very simply, an air-fuel mixture enters your engine's cylinders when the intake valves are opened by the Engine Timing Chain. Once the mixture has gone through, the timing chain shuts the intake valves, thus starting the essential combustion and compression processes. This mixture ultimately turns into the energy needed to keep your vehicle riding smoothly.
Because the Engine Timing Chain helps to manage such a dynamic task within your engine, damage most often occurs due to standard wear and tear. In a worst-case scenario, a poorly functioning Engine Timing Chain can lead to engine failure. A busted engine can be costly to fix or completely irreparable. Maintain your INFINITI by getting a new Engine Timing Chain immediately if it is broken or damaged.
If the Engine Timing Chain on your INFINITI stops working the way it's supposed to, there may be other symptoms and issues too. Your engine may misfire. Your motor oil might become dirty due to metal shavings falling from the worn timing chain. And as the Engine Timing Chain slacks and weakens, you will likely hear clanking sounds when driving on the road.
If you think that your Engine Timing Chain is at the end of its functional life, have it replaced right away. This component is critical when it comes to keeping your engine in great working order.
