    Does the 2019 Holden Equinox have a timing chain or timing belt?
    Answered by David Morley · 28 August 2020

    All three of the engines used in the Holden Equinox (1.5 turbo-petrol, 2.0 turbo-petrol and 1.6 turbo-diesel) used a timing chain rather than a timing belt. While timing belts usually need periodic replacement, the timing chains fitted to the Holden engine should be good for the life of that engine.
