Does the honda fit have a timing belt or chain?

The Honda Fit is equipped with a timing chain. In most cases, this part will last the life of the vehicle, unlike belts that require routine maintenance and replacement. However, there are exceptions. The chain is comprised of links that interact with the crankshaft and camshaft to make sure these components are perfectly synC-HRonized. These parts control the input and output valves. If the chain breaks, serious damage to the engine can be resulted. The most common symptom of a failing chain is a rattling sound in the engine. Small metal fragments can be worn off by friction, which land in the oil drain pan and bounce around. If You hear a rattling noise, You definitely want a mechanic to take a look at the part. The cost to replace the timing chain on a Honda Fit is $440 to $530. Labor makes up about $340 to $430 of that amount.
