Do timing chains break on Saturn sl?
It is possible for it to break, but highly unlikely, especially if you perform oil/filter changes as you should. Normally the timing chain will last the life of the engine and is not an item you replace. But on your Saturn it is critical that the oil/filter be changed exactly as listed in the owner's manual. The timing chain may also come into contact with the timing cover, causing noise in the engine. The only way to know for sure if the chain needs replacing is to look at it. If you do that, you might as well just replace it.
