Timing Chain Replacement | Autotech Cheshire Macclesfield

Timing Chain Replacement in Macclesfield

The timing chain is one of the most important components of your engine, keeping everything running in perfect synchronisation. Unlike a timing belt, the chain is designed to last longer — but over time, it can stretch or wear, leading to serious engine damage if ignored.

At Autotech Cheshire, we provide professional timing chain inspection, diagnosis, and replacement for all makes and models — including Land Rover and Range Rover, prestige marques such as Mercedes, BMW, Porsche and the wider VAG group. This also includes all hybrid, and electric vehicles.

If you notice rattling noises on start-up, poor performance, or warning lights on your dashboard, it could be a sign your timing chain needs attention.

Common Signs of Timing Chain Problems

• Rattling or ticking noise from the engine

• Rough idling or misfiring

• Metal shavings in the engine oil

• Poor acceleration or loss of power

• Check engine light illuminated

• Engine failing to start

These symptoms should never be ignored — a broken timing chain can cause catastrophic engine failure.
