2013 Honda Civic timing chain when to change it?

According to Honda, the timing chain in the 2013 Honda Civic does not require regular replacement under normal driving conditions. However, if the vehicle is driven in severe conditions, such as dusty or dirty environments, or if it is overloaded, the timing chain may need to be inspected or replaced more frequently.

Some signs that the timing chain may need to be changed include:

* A rattling or knocking sound from the engine

* Engine misfires
