I'm new to Benz ownership, buy my 1987 560 SL isn't new...about 101,000 miles. Have heard scuttlebutt that this is the time to have the timing chain checked. The car has just recently begun to run a little rough...and I haven't yet gone over the ignition system.

Please give me the straight scoop on the "Timing Chain at 100,000 Miles" ledgend.

...and confidential to Benzmac...was in Atlanta last week...should've stopped by and bought you a cup (or bottle) for all you do for the folks here in this forum!
