Your Engine Timing Chain helps to coordinate the closing and opening process of several different valves inside of your Nissan's engine. This car part plays a crucial role in your vehicle's combustion process.
Put very simply, an air-fuel mixture enters your engine's cylinders when the intake valves are opened by the Engine Timing Chain. Once the mixture has gone through, the timing chain closes the intake valves during the compression and combustion process. This fuel and air mixture turns into the energy needed to keep your vehicle riding smoothly.
Since the Engine Timing Chain in your Nissan helps to manage such a dynamic task within your engine, damage most often occurs due to overall wear and tear. In a worst-case scenario, a broken or damaged Engine Timing Chain can even cause engine failure. A busted engine can be costly to fix and many times, irreparable. Maintain your Nissan by replacing this component as soon as you notice a problem.
If the Engine Timing Chain on your Nissan stops working the way it's supposed to, you may experience other problems as well. Your engine may misfire.

And as the Engine Timing Chain slacks and weakens, you may notice rattling noises whenever you drive your vehicle.
