BMW X1 engines with a timing chain

Many engines in the BMW X1 have a timing chain instead of a timing belt. These usually never need to be replaced. On this page you will find a list of BMW X1 engines that have a cam chain.

You will also find information about which engines that have a timing belt.

I have collected information about various popular diesel engines and petrol engines from 2010 to 2019.

The timing chains in BMW X1 are known to last very well as long as service and oil changes are handled.

If you hear a rattling sound from a motor with a timing chain, it may be a sign that the chain needs to be replaced.

Consult a mechanic if you hear a strange engine noise, especially if it is a rattling sound.

This can occur if, for example, the car has not been serviced properly.

If you are considering buying a used BMW X1, make sure that the oil changes are made according to the car’s interval.
