The 2014 INFINITIQ50 is equipped with a timing chain. Unlike a belt, which requires routine replacement, a chain will usually last the life of the vehicle. However, there are times this part needs to be replaced, as well. The chain is comprised of links. These links interact with the teeth of the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets. It makes sure the sprockets are constantly synC-HRonized since they work to control the opening and closing of intake and exhaust valves. If a timing chain breaks, engine damage can be severe. The most common symptom of a chain that needs to be looked at by a professional is rattling in the engine compartment. Friction can cause pieces to break off and fall into the oil drain pan, which results in rattling when the vehicle is in motion. The average cost to replace this part in the 2014 Q50 is $1,020 to $1,200, including labor.
