Description

This Genuine GM 55515943 timing chain is the updated design, compatible with all LM2 and LZ0 engines and a must-have upgrade for 2020 models prone to failure.

The 3.0L Duramax, introduced in 2020, is a strong performer — but early engines came with a critical flaw: an under-lubricated timing chain that wore out prematurely. Many 2020 owners experienced excessive chain slack, throwing off engine timing and causing major repairs upwards of $10,000.

GM listened. By early 2021, a new updated timing chain design was introduced.
