The 2007 Nissan Sentra has a 1.8 L 4Cylinder engine that is equipped with a timing chain rather than a belt. A major benefit of having a chain is that they are built to last and can potentially last for the entire life of Your engine. It's not a guarantee and failures can occur but it's less likely to fail over time than a timing belt. To avoid failures You can make sure that Your oil pressure doesn't get too low because once it does it can lead to issues with Your chain and the tensioners. A broken timing chain can cause additional damage to other parts of Your engine as well so do what You can to keep up with Your oil changes to prevent that. -

The 2007 Nissan Sentra has a camshaft operation High Alloy Steel timing chain. The timing chain tensioning system connects the engine's camshaft to the crankshaft and controls the opening and closing of the engine's valves. The system must work accurately and precisely for the engine to function properly.
