The 2013 Nissan Sentra is equipped with a 1.8 L engine that features a timing chain instead of a timing belt. This change is welcomed by many as the chain is more durable than belts, potentially eliminating the need for replacement. With a belt, replacement every 60,000 miles is necessary, which, while not overly burdensome, can become costly over time. To ensure your timing chain remains in good condition, staying on top of regular oil changes is all that's required.
