Saab has always had timing chain,if it works why go to something different.

I have a theory that the cambelt in an automatic car driven without violent acceleration, will last longer than in a car that is revved a lot or often kept in a low gear. Surely the belt wears out depending on the total engine revolutions.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Saab, MG, MAN-B&W all use(d) chains. Strange you don't see professional cyclists using belts on a push-bike. Oops, sorry, went to a pharmaceutical conference and a cycle race broke out.

I have to admit Kaz I'm confused as to why running VVTi requires a chain over a belt!
