E36 Upper Timing Chain

 The timing chain in any vehicle can begin to stretch and rattle over time. BMW says it is a 'lifetime part', but we recommend replacing them on very high mileage engines when installing a new vanos.

IWIS brand chains are top quality and offer 2 versions, Standard and Racing.

The standard chain is fine for all applications, while the Racing chain has slightly thicker link plates that resist stretching.

Options:

• Standard
• Racing
