N47 Timing Chain issue - legal action in Ireland continues

[JohnH]

Anyways, all is not lost, the new Merc 4cyl diesels are doing the exact same with the timing chain in the same location!!!!

Connected to the engine?? Is it a design issue as well as a lack of servicing issue?

Yep it's at the rear of the engine. I'd say it's the same as the Bmw, a combination of design fault and excessive mileage on the service intervals
