Does the 2011 Toyota Corolla have a timing belt or chain?

The 2011 Toyota Corolla comes with a timing chain instead of a timing belt. Many car makers have moved toward timing chains, as they are a lot more durable than the belts. A timing chain typically does not need replacement during the normal life of a car. Timing belts on the other hand suffer wear and tear, and are often changed once or twice in a car's life. With the stronger chains in use, You don't have to worry about that. Except in the event of a major engine work toward the end of the car's life. As this car comes with a chain, You do not have to worry about it. Routine oil changes and lubrication will cover the chain's maintenance as well.
