The 2019 Nissan Rogue and all earlier models from 2008 onwards have a timing chain instead of a belt, with Nissan opting for the durable chain over the more frequently replaced belts. While both components do the same job effectively, maintaining the timing chain is easier with regular oil changes. Proper lubrication from oil enables the chain to move smoothly with other engine parts and maintain timing. Neglecting oil changes can lead to friction, potentially damaging the chain and causing other engine issues.
