The 2000 Mazda MPV features a 2.5 L V6 engine equipped with a timing chain rather than a belt. Pre-2000 MPVs were fitted with timing belts, but the switch to chains was made in this model year. Unlike belts, chains do not have a specific replacement schedule. In a well-maintained MPV over 20 years old, the original chain may likely still be in use. Consistent oil changes will help keep the chain properly lubricated and functioning smoothly for extended periods.
