I am thinking of buying a 2018 Mercedes Benz GLC 220d 4matic with 100,000km on the clock. From the information on your site it looks like this model has a timing chain. Is the timing chain a lifetime component or will it need to be replaced at some stage and if so what would be the normal interval?

Hello, Mercedes-Benz has not specified a timing chain replacement interval for the GLC 220d 4matic.
