★ Top Answer
The 2017 Kia Optima comes equipped with a timing chain meant to last the entire lifetime of the vehicle as long as it is properly lubricated and undamaged. Replacement of the chain should not be necessary, but if it is, expect to pay around $100 for the chain online and an additional $100 for installation. When purchasing a replacement chain, make sure you carefully distinguish between a chain and a belt, as they are not interchangeable, despite both being called a cambelt. Choosing the wrong part could result in getting stuck with a piece that won't work for your vehicle.
