Yup, I know that. Luxurious car used high quality timing belt bro, thats why we dont care. Malaysian car use low quality timing belt. Thats why for Malaysian made car, I prefer the one that use timing chain. And I agree, using timing chain give a peace of mind  biggrin.gif
Yup, chain is better than belt. Belt need to be replace after certain time since it can break. Chain dont have too. Axia also use chain.

LOL..

There are pros and cons la.. except for longevity there is no hard n fast rule that chains are better than belt..
BTW, chains can break too.. n in most instances belted engines are usually quieter..

Well my point is in the longevity part. Thats why Im saying chain is better. Chain can break but the possibilty are very low. Belt on the other hand can break easily if you forget to change it after a certain time. Both have pro and cons, I agree. If you wanna peace of mind and don't wanna worry about timing belt maintenance, go for chain one. 
Btw, im sorry for bringing up persona (with use timing belt) and starting the war. In the future, need to be more careful. LOL. Previously this forum so slow moving, but everytime that car name come up, lots of people come pouring in to defend.  tongue.gif
