2014 Kia Rio - loose timing chain?

Показать описание
So while replacing the valve cover gasket on my 2014 Kia Rio with 130,000 mi I happen to notice the timing chain seems very loose. I haven't looked to see if it uses a hydraulic tensioner or not but even if it had a hydraulic tensioner this seems exceptionally loose.

So I looked it up and this car does use a hydraulic timing chain tensioner. I never heard any top end or chain noise. It was just a little surprising to see a chain that loose though, lol
