Does a 2013 vw passat v6 have a timing chain or belt?

The 2013 VW Passat with a V6 engine is equipped with a timing chain, not a timing belt. Timing chains are generally more durable and have a longer lifespan compared to timing belts, often lasting the life of the engine with proper maintenance. However, it’s still important to keep up with regular maintenance to ensure the timing chain and related components remain in good condition.
