If you're curious about whether the Acura TSX has a timing chain or belt, it depends on the specific model year you're interested in. From 2004 to 2008, the TSX was fitted with a low-maintenance timing chain on its 2.4L engine. Moving forward to the 2009 to 2014 model years, the 2.4L engine continued with a timing chain, while the 3.5L engine used a timing belt. Both the timing chain and belt play a crucial role in ensuring your engine's crankshaft and camshaft rotate properly to allow the opening and closing of the engine's valves. It's important to replace them promptly if they fail to function correctly for the continued operation of your vehicle.
