CHAIN
03 corsa 1.2 16v sxi cam belt or chain
I believe that the 1.2 Corsa engine swapped to a chain driven cam with the move to the 'latest shape' cars - usually Y registration and onwards. A 2000 Corsa is the previous model and will, I reckon, have the belt driven cam. So, it's 4year/40,000 mile belt changes under vauxhall's latest recommendations.
yes it has a cam chain ok
CHAIN
chain
The 2000 and older Corsa 1.2 engines have a belt driven cam. The 2001 and newer models use a chain drive.
The one litre, three cylinder engine, is chain driven
belt driven
Yes definately, the petrols become noisy (rattle) and diesels are prone to slipping, but all corsa c, 2001 onwards are chain driven.
I take it you mean 1.2 16V ? It doesnt have a cambelt , it has a cam chain , which "should" last the life of the engine, there is no recommended change schedules of the chain. If it gets noisy....change it quick !
Yes, all Vauxhall 1 litre 3 cylinder engines have a timing chain.
my 2000 model doesnearly all cars do, apart from the odd few that run off a chain
