is it timing belt or timing chain??

[hangout]

HI, I have a FX35 now, and thinking to try the FX45 V8..

I was wondering if the V8 engine is running by timing Chain or timing belt?
if its by timing belt, then when to change it?
Fx45 using the same engine on M45?

anyone give me an idea... Thanks

Its chain

So we don't need to get that changed, but what about water pump?

The timing chain is not a maintenance part, so it should last the life of the engine. The water pump will need to be change if it leaks.
