Currently I got a TSX and has a timing chain also but my service rep said there is no maintenance schedule for it...I got 93k miles on it.
I have the very first batch of the 09 Ralliarts and I had to get my timing chain replaced (along with a huge list of associated parts) when I only had 32k miles on it. Covered under warranty tho but I hope Mitsubishi didnt replace the chain with the same old design (if they had improved the part for the 2011 models) because I dont wnat to have to deal with it again...
