rolandk -> Check your timing chain (5/29/2007 6:08:33 AM)

Dear A-lovers,
Remember to have your timing gear chain checked regularly. I thought that Mercedes had learned the lesson from the fifties and sixties, that a single row chain in a four cylinder engine is not a good combination - but obviously they have not, and still install such in a modern car. MB does not prescribe any mileage limitation for the chain, and some day the chain will break causing major damage to the engine. Mine broke at 160 000 km, and the repair would be some 5500 USD.
Cheers,
Roland K
