How do I Iknow if a car is cambelt or chain driven?
I am dealing for a Nissan Serena 1997 diesel, manual.
The owner has no idea.

Thank you in advance

According to data available to us, the Serena diesel has a belt (unlike the Serena petrol which is chain driven).
Belt driven engines have a front cover that is usually plastic, which you will be able to see is relatively easily removed, whereas on most chain driven engines, the front of the engine is not removable.
