Not very helpful on this forum are you? 13 of you have viewed my post and not replied,surely one of you knows if the ignis has a timing belt. You drive them after all!

if you still interesting about ignis engine M13A-16V VVT I found only this short information .This engine 1,3 was equipped with special silent chain
I have only this….

POWER
The new IGNIS offers a choice of 3 efficient, low-emission engines: 1.3-litre and 1.5-litre petrol engines, and a 1,248cm3 DDiS diesel engine. Both petrol engines are equipped with Suzuki’s Variable Valve Timing, which enables cleaner, more efficient burning of fuel and smoother running performance at mid-range engine speeds. A catalytic converter and oxygen sensor further reduce emissions. Engine noise is kept to a minimum by a wide range of smartly designed technologies, including a silent chain. All models are available with a five-speed manual transmission with gear ratios set to maximize driving performance. Also offered on the 1.5-litre petrol engine models is a 4-speed automatic transmission optimized for the characteristics of the engine. Its precise electronic control contributes to smooth gear changes.

information it concerns older version Ignis , I suppose that the main engine structure is the same …..

I can not insert pictures .... sorry
