The 2011 Chevrolet Impala comes equipped with a timing chain, which is a positive feature as it typically does not require replacement and can outlast the vehicle itself. However, there is a chance that it may break, costing around $40 to $55 for the part replacement. Labor costs can be higher, totaling a few hundred dollars. If the chain fails while driving, it could cause significant damage to the engine. Additionally, it is recommended to replace the water pump and tensioner around the 100,000-mile mark when dealing with these timing chain systems.
The Chevy Impala models from 2011 with 3.5L V6 and 3.9L V6 engines are equipped with a timing chain system.
