The engine in the 2009 Toyota Yaris has a timing chain, which is an improvement over a timing belt. Unlike a belt that typically requires replacement every 60,000 to 100,000 miles and can be costly, a chain is designed to last over 300,000 miles without issues. It's recommended to inspect the chain annually to ensure it remains in good condition, free from damage or debris that could lead to malfunctions.
