Reviews of IWIS timing chain

6k in parts for a timing chain alone?

Yes it is. Get a new set (preferably with an IWIS pro series chain) and be done with it.

I've been gathering parts to do the timing chain on my 2012 CTT. I bought it with a reduced engine power warning but was originally told it was just a variable valve solenoid. Thankfully I did some research and learned that you can see part of the upper timing chain guide through the oil fill cap hole. Mine is missing the plastic lining on the upper chain guide so a timing chain service is needed.

The only better chain is made by Iwis, in Germany. Excellent chain.
