So , after reading the above threads and more elsewhere , I am still confused .

I do not have access to the car or the manual at the moment .nor can I find any details on the Chevrolet website.

1.Does the 2011, 1.6 L Aveo hatchback with manual transmission have a timing belt or a chain ?
2.Is it an interference or Non-interference engine .
3.What is the OEM replacement recommendation for the belt ( or chain)?
4.Has anyone experienced premature failure of the belt /chain and at what kms?
5.How easy is it to do it yourself , if you have never done one before , and are not a mechanic?

Any Help will be much appreciated.
