Nissan Almeras have common problem with them which is the timing chain. It's a Renault part and gets stretched after so many miles which causes the engine to stall and not start. My Nissan stalled when I was overtaking another car and it nearly killed me. There's a recall for this defect but my vin was not included.

It has a timing chain. The timing chain is on the front of the engine. But before messing with it ,I would have the timing check first. You may have something else wrong,like a sensor or a vaccum leak.
if its the timing chain u mean then never.but if rattling then have it changed it cud set of misfiring codes etc.but if its the serpertine belt u mean then just check for noise wear or tear or replace .

Answer to timing belt for 1996 AltimaThey don't have timing belts. At least mine doesn't. Double check your manual or call a Nissan dealer & ask to be sure. There is not a timing belt on this model or any year before or after this model. You have a 2.4L engine with a timing chain and there is no reason to replace the timing chain unless it is making noise. The chain is at least rated at a 7-10 hour job and should not be considered for repair due to the damage that can arise if not careful.
