Based on industry averages you can expect to pay between $11.29 and $200.99 for a VW Golf timing chain.
The VW Golf timing chain is the connecting piece between the crankshaft and the camshaft. It transfers the crankshaft's rotation to the camshaft, which then controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves within an engine. The timing chain employs the gears located to the ends of the two shafts to wrap around them and grasp them in order to transfer power from the crankshaft to the camshaft. Since the gears' diameters result in a reduction in rotational speed, the camshaft rotates at a rate that is exactly half that of the crankshaft. Generally speaking, timing chains will last between 80,000 and 120,000 miles however it can begin to stretch and wear out as early as 40,000 miles.
Regular engine maintenance can help to keep your timing chain in good working condition. This includes replacing the oil at the recommended manufacturer intervals, preferably earlier. If the engine oil is not changed, the likelihood that your timing chain will need to be replaced increases because it is lubricated by it. Some symptoms of a faulty timing chain can include a rough idle, engine backfires, or your VW Golf not starting.
