The timing chain controls the timing of car engine valves. It connects the crankshaft to the camshaft, which in turn controls the opening and closing of the valves. A worn timing chain can be diagnosed by a rattling or chattering noise from the cylinder head. It is important that the timing chain, or

as it is in some cars, is replaced at the intervals recommended by the manufacturers, as its breakage can cause severe damage to the engine.
