Does my Hyundai i40 have a timing belt?

Recently purchased a 2012 Hyundai i40 CRDi 136 and trying to find out when the timing belt has to be changed. According to a main dealer the car only ever came with a chain. Any information would be great.

Hi Craig,

The main dealer was telling the truth: the 1.7-litre CRDi engine uses a timing chain, not a belt.
