Title: Cam chain and tensioner replacement

Good Day, folks.

I hope that I managed to translate this parts correctly :)

Question is, did you change cam chain and tensioner as per manual (on about 70000 km )?
I am pushing now almost 100,000 km and I was advised by service tech that he is strongly suggest that I change this.
What are yours experience (thoughts) on this ?

Thanks

Gordan

There's nothing in my US manual (circa 2007) concerning changing the cam chain and tensioner that I can find.
