My dad ran over a deer a time ago, nothing was broken, but the stupid pedestrian protection system activated. this was about 2k euro and he had to wait months for it. Timing chain failiure will cost about 3 times as much, as it costs them to build the whole car.
Hi thanks for you comment, I’m not a Machanic but from my understanding if there’s a good service history and the oil has been changed regularly and there’s no rattling it should be good for over 100k, the petrol version is the way to go.
I’m not a qualified Mechanic, Depends on the type of engine if you turn an engine over when timing chain failure has happened you may hear rattling if so you risk doing more damage to the engine would be best having a garage check it over

How often would you recommend changing the timing chain, I am looking at buying a 2013 125i with 90kms 2 litre turbo

No, it's impossible.
There's zero compression because the timing chain drives the engine.
@@Sigma.6 no, that's BS. Fuel/air mixture drives the engine, the chain controls the valves.
