What to check on this one at 10,000 km
- Timing chain, not a belt, so no scheduled change. A rattle for a second on a cold start points to a stretched chain: listen for it.
- At about 9 years old, rubber and electrics matter as much as the engine: hoses, bushes, the AC compressor, and rust in the sills and boot floor.
- AMT: a short pause on each shift is normal. A long hesitation, a jerky pull-away or trouble selecting a gear points to clutch or actuator wear.
