I was on my research for replacing the timing chain for my own X3 2006. Bottom line, it needs not be serviced unless it's making a noise. It could last the life of the engine. Good Luck!

The BMW X3 with the 2.0-liter diesel engine typically uses a timing chain rather than a timing belt. Timing chains generally require less maintenance and are designed to last the lifetime of the engine. However, it's always a good idea to check the specific model year and engine variant, as specifications can vary.
Timing chains are designed to last the life of the engine and are normally replaced during a complete engine rebuild. Unless it gets noisy there is no need to replace it.
