4 cylinder has a timing chain ,6 cylinder has timing belt.
It has a chain
The 3.0 litre V6 engine in a 1995 Nissan Maxima has a timing CHAIN
No, it has a timing chain.
I am in the process of rebuilding a 1993 Nissan altima. The 93 - 97 having timing chains. It has an upper and a lower timing chain. Hope this helps
Noisy, and you cannot keep the engine timed.
TIMING CHAIN
The 1995 Land Rover Discovery has a timing chain.
The 1995 Nissan Maxima has a timing chain, not a timing belt. If the shop is telling you that you need to replace the engine's timing belt, time to find a different mechanic!
Never. 1995 Nissan altimas have 2 timing chains. Not belts.
Both engines (US Models) use timing chains. Upper and lower chains in the GA16DE (1.6 liter engine) and a single chain the the SR20DE (2.0 liter engine).
timing chain
The Nissan Maximas produced from 1995 on (VQ30DE engine) are equipped with a timing chain system, rather than a timing belt. The recommended replacement interval for 1994 and prior timing belt equipped Maximas is 60,000 miles. But for 1995 and newer Maximas with a timing chain, the recommended replacement interval is not as well-defined. Timing chains generally have a greater durability and longevity compared to timing belts, and some vehicles (not limited to Nissan) have gone well over 100,000 miles before a timing chain replacement. This particular Nissan timing system includes not just a chain, but several chains, as well as hydraulic tensioners and timing chain guides. While the chain itself is quite durable, it is possible for the other components (guides or tensioners) to wear out sooner than the chain(s). So although there is no specific recommendation on when (mileage-wise or timewise), if it is determined that one or more components have reached the end of their serviceable life, THEN would be the time to change the chain, along with the rest of the timing system components.
