03 T Chain Replacement?

My 2003 Has 267K on it already and im curious if i should even bother checking/replacing the chain. Runs good in cold or hot and has never given me any issues, i change the oil every 4-6K ( Factory says every 7500 ). ive taken real good care of this car and its treated me the same.

Well, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

If you do go into it in the future, then I'd consider it... but for now, enjoy the excellent return you're getting on your car. That's my .02!

That is some crazy mileage..awesome. I thought my 2004 with almost 110K miles was cool.

That chain should be pretty solid, but a quick check from a trusted mechanic wouldnt hurt, esp if you have any summer road trips coming up...
