Nissan Tino - which chain cam?

I have a '04-plate Nissan Tino, and I want to know what type of timing chain it uses?

I have been told that there is two types, Which one does mine have?

Also, the ECU light is on, but there are no symptoms - like misfiring, etc. But the fuel economy has dipped a bit. I had the ECU code-read, and it came up with a problem on cam sensor - it only started after I had a problem with exhaust.

Would suggest that you go to Euro Car Parts. Give them your registration number, and they will tell you what type of timing chain it uses.

If your code reader says it's the cam sensor, then I would suggest that you check/change it.
