Mileage is not the only factor in the life expectancy of a timing chain. If the engine has not had frequent and religiously thorough oil changes, the microscopic particulate matter will have stretched a timing chain before it's time.

The only way to know for sure, is to use a dial indicator and the procedure and specs in the MB manual.

Good luck,
