do you know if the timing chain has been replaced? any reciepts or that confirming it?

or

have a look in the engine and can you see a dark colour thick tube that comes from your engine bay underneath your manifold? the Catalytic converter. you can also look underneath the front of your car and you will see it. its where the exhaust attaches to. is it loose when you shake it?

Edit. im not sure if the 1.2's are the same as the 1.0 in terms of the CAT positions. my experience hasnt quite adapted that far yet, lol.
