Timing chain of the 2.0 Ingenium diesel
Severity 3/3 · SeriousThe 2.0 Ingenium diesel in the XE is described by several specialist sources and forums as prone to timing chain wear: a metallic noise on cold start, camshaft fault codes, and a chain located at the rear of the engine that requires removing the gearbox to reach it. The sources mention a chain service at the end of 2019 (forum); check whether the chain has already been replaced.
