The timing chain on a 2007 Saturn Ion is designed to last the lifetime of the vehicle, typically around 100,000 to 200,000 miles, depending on driving conditions and maintenance practices. However, it should be replaced if you notice symptoms like unusual engine noises, poor engine performance, or a check engine light indicating timing issues. Regular maintenance, including oil changes, can help prolong the life of the timing chain. Always consult the owner's manual or a professional mechanic for specific recommendations.

The 6 cylinder Saturns were equipped with the "Ecotec" engine, which used a timing belt. Timing belts fail over time, and Saturn recommends that the belt be replaced every 100,000 miles. The 4 cylinder Saturns all used timing chains. With recommended service and normal use, the timing chain should not fail. It is recommended that you replace the timing chain and sprockets whenever the engine is rebuilt, but otherwise, the timing chain is considered to be quite reliable.

Never. The Saturn S series vehicles used a timing chain instead of a timing belt. And the chain is inside the engine, bathed in oil to keep it lubricated. The timing chain should be replaced whenever you rebuild the engine.

When do you need to replace timing chain on 1994 Saturn?

Generally speaking, if you have properly maintained and not abused the engine, the timing chain should last until the engine is worn out. If you find that you have any burned valves, by all means replace the timing chain, pulleys and chain tensioners. But a timing chain is not like a timing belt. A belt will wear out after 80K to 100K miles. The chains do age, but since they are constantly in an oil bath, if you've kept the oil clean the chain should last a long time.
