Does anyone know if the 3 cyl 12 valve 989cc engine in the Perodua Kelisa and Daihatsu Charade is chain cam or belt cam?
I would like to know as I have just bought a 52 plate Prodder Kelisa auto.
Thanks

SWMBO has the Charade, and I'm 90% sure it's a belt, though I can't remember where I got that idea from. Perhaps it was mentioned in the service schedule.
