Based on real life experience, the Kia Cee`d SW 1.4 MPi 2018 timing chain change interval is approximately 200,000 km as at this mileage it may become overstretched and require replacement, so it is recommended to check the condition of the chain periodically after this mileage is reached and replace the timing chain if it becomes excessively
Recommended replacement interval information was compiled by Gates from vehicle manufacturers’ information where available. In the cases where vehicle manufacturers’ recommended replacement intervals are not available, intervals shown are based on industry standards. Replacement intervals are recommendations only and are In general, if you didn't remove the VVT actuator don't worry about it. The reason you reset the position is so that the timing isn't off. I'm unsure of the style of actuator your Kia uses but on Toyota's it's a vane style actuated by oil pressure. The only time the actuator should of moved is when oil pressure is flowing to it. g3c0IRt.
