★ Top Answer
The 2015 Kia Optima comes equipped with a timing chain that is covered by warranty for ten years or 150,000 miles. This chain is designed to last the lifetime of the vehicle and does not require replacement like a timing belt. If a replacement is needed, the cost for the part itself ranges from $60 to $276. Opting for a professional mechanic to handle the replacement could cost between $89 and $230 for labor.
