NVH present and accounted for!
I do actually own a car with timing gears though...

I’ve got gears in one of my cars. Nice to take one chain/belt off the list of shit to worry about.

I’ve actually only owned one car with a timing belt. It broke on the highway. Luckily no other damage, got it replaced. Car was totalled two months later by a car with a timing chain. I think life is trying to tell me something there.

Pfft, who needs timing anyway?

Bah.
And I know of more complex than that, too - that’s just the 5-cylinder I’m pretty sure, the V10 has a second bank.

The Taunus V4 and Colonge 2.8L V6 keep it simple.

Audi 4.2, or 5.2? The best part is that they put those chains on the side of the engine that mates to the trans. I mean, really, it’s a chain right, shouldn’t ever need to change that ;)

I have no idea what it might be; I just looked for an ugly-looking timing chain.

You want gears?
Here are gears. Not a single one is anything to do with timing though, because two stroke.

As I understand it, that is basically a true statement. Now the timing chain

Amen. Guides are a whole other story.

I’m pretty sure that’s one of the audi 8 or 10, basically the same give or take 2 cylinders

I got rid of my V6 VVT Impala, in spite of how strong it ran, out of fear of a major timing chain repair. Dumped it while it was still well.
