96 C280 Recommended Timing Chain Replacement Mileage

[Martineau Gauda]

Hi Group,

Anyone know the recommended mileage for timing chain replacment on the 96 C280. This model uses a double chain type.

Thanks

There is no known service interval, however I have changed a few at 150K when they began to rattle on start-up like a V-8.
I have seen many O.E. chains exceed 200k without fault.
