The 2015 Kia Optima uses a timing chain to guide its system, not a timing belt. The chain is overdue by warranty for ten years or 150,000 miles. It is expected to have a lifetime equal to that of the vehicle. Unlike a timing belt, a chain never needs to be replaced. If You do find Yourself needing a new one, You should expect to pay between $60 and $276 for the part alone. If You choose to have a professional mechanic complete the replacement, You will likely pay between $89 and $230 for labor.
